Wade’s shot lifted the Heat to a 126-125 win over the defending NBA champions on Wednesday night.
Dwyane Wade rolled back the years on Wednesday night, draining a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Miami Heat a 126-125 win over the Golden State Warriors.
The 13-time All-Star will retire at the end of the season but showed he’s still capable of delivering clutch shots. With Miami down by two, Wade drove to the rim with nine seconds left, only to be denied by Andre Igoudala.
The Heat veteran then fed the ball to Dion Waiters, who quickly passed it back to Wade after being double-teamed. Standing at the top of the key with the clock ticking down, Wade’s three-pointer was blocked by Warriors forward Jason Bell, but the rebound fell kindly for the Heat guard, as he regained possession.
Despite being precariously balanced on just one leg, Wade threw up another three-pointer, which ricocheted off the board and found its way into the basket.
« It was definitely one of my toughest game-winners that I’ve hit, » Wade was quoted as saying by ESPN.
