During the first quarter of Miami’s Wednesday night game against the Magic, Wade did a fantastic job of splitting the pick-and-roll, which set himself up for an easy dunk.
Take a look at Wade’s great move below:
That’s perfectly executed basketball from the Heat veteran.
While Wade has missed 17 games this season, he’s performed very well when healthy and remains one of the better shooting guards in the NBA. He’s averaging 21.0 points (48.2 percent shooting from the field, 29.6 percent shooting from beyond the arc), 5.2 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game this season.
If Wade can remain relatively healthy, the Heat have a great shot at making the postseason, even given Chris Bosh’s season-ending health issues. Miami is currently 24-31, which places them in seventh place in the Eastern Conference and 1.5 games ahead of the No. 9 team in the conference, the Charlotte Hornets.
Wade and the Heat have not missed the postseason since the 2007-08 season.
