In a somewhat bizarre but fresh use of social media -- maybe it's the Back to the Future craze this week -- Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade posted a photoshopped picture to Instagram featuring his current self with his arm wrapped around his much younger frame, likely from his first couple years in the Association.

The 12-year NBA veteran attached the following message of advice from the vet to the rook:

Young Dwade... you will go thru UPS and DOWNS you're gonna lose your way and feel lost but i promise you you will find your way.. Basketball is going to take you places you've only imagine in your dreams, and beyond...On the court don't hold anything back, what you do now will set the plate for you and your families future. oh btw you will have a beautiful supportive family. They're gonna let you lead and when you fall they will be there to pick you up and wait for you to walk back to the front and lead again.. Go enjoy an amazing life young bull!!!'

 

 

Wade and the Miami Heat open their season next Wednesday at home against the Hornets.
