Justise Winslow couldn’t contain his excitement after watching Dwayne Wade turn back the clock.
The Miami Heat are in a fight with the Charlotte Hornets in the first round of the NBA Playoffs, but that doesn’t mean they can’t have a little fun along the way.
That’s what rookie Justise Winslow was doing early in the game.
The former Duke star and Heat first round pick broke out a festive dance to celebrate Dwayne Wade unleashing a spin move that led to an easy bucket.
Nothing but some unbridled enthusiasm from the NBA rookie who has had a strong first season in the league. He figures to be a big part of the team’s plans moving forward and could eventually take on the scoring load that Wade has had to shoulder throughout his career.
Now, I’m not saying Winslow is the next Wade or anything like that, but he should be a difference-maker for the Heat for a long time.
It’ll be interesting to see if Winslow is dancing later as this game progresses into the latter stages of the contest or if Kemba Walker and the Hornets will make sure he’s not dancing again any time soon.
