Looking Back At Dwyane Wade's Top Plays As His 'One Last Dance' Comes To An End
MIAMI (CBSMiami) – It's been quite the ride since the Miami Heat selected Dwyane Wade with the 5th pick in the 2003 NBA Draft.
It's a decision by Heat President Pat Riley that would prove to be one of the best that he has made for the franchise, which is a list that is long and distinguished.
Starting with his rookie season, Wade has become the face of a franchise that has become known as much for its classiness as its propensity for winning.
Though the team has gone through several big changes during his tenure, including the addition (and subtraction) of several top-tier players such as Shaquille O'Neal, LeBron James and Chris Bosh, Wade has always been the foundation for all of the achievements that Miami has accomplished.
A three-time NBA champion, a Finals MVP, a league scoring champion, a 13-time NBA All-Star and the all-time leading scorer in Heat history, Wade is undoubtedly the best player to ever put on a Miami Heat uniform.
