Dwyane Wade scored 30 points in the tribute-filled final home game of his career with the Heat against the 76ers.
His oldest son, the heir to the Wade basketball throne, was on the Miami bench for the final minutes.
"Wade County," Wade shouted to the crowd after the game after he jumped up onto the courtside table where Heat managing general partner Micky Arison sits, one last time, one last celebration. "I love you." Bam Adebayo scored 19, Justise Winslow scored 16 and Hassan Whiteside added 15 for the Heat. The Heat were aware that Memphis had a big lead against Detroit, a must-win for the Grizzlies to keep Miami alive in the playoff race, but the Pistons rallied.Wade’s career will end Wednesday in Brooklyn, when Miami plays its regular-season finale. He checked out for the last time with 1:02 left, embracing teammates and his son Zaire — who was on the Heat bench.
"Special, to see my brother get as much love as he deserves," Butler said. "He’s one of the greatest to play this game and I’m so happy he gets to go out on his terms.""To see him be celebrated that way was the only positive of the night," 76ers coach Brett Brown said.
