Dwyane Wade: The 10 Best Games Of His Career
By Sam Richmond
Perhaps no superstar in the modern era has gone more underappreciated than Miami Heat shooting guard Dwyane Wade has.
There’s a strong argument to be made that he’s the third greatest shooting guard in NBA history, behind only Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, yet he’s rarely viewed in that light.
In 11-plus seasons, Wade is a three-time league champion, Finals MVP, scoring champion and 10-time all-star. His career per-game averages are absurd for a 6’4″ shooting guard: 24.3 points, five rebounds, six assists, 1.7 steals and one block.
The undervaluing of Wade has gotten even worse in recent years. It’s seemingly become an offseason tradition for the question to be asked: has Dwyane Wade lost a step? Yet, when healthy, few are better than Wade.
At 32, he’s averaging 21.2 points on 53.7 percent shooting from the field, 5.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 0.5 blocks.
The disrespecting of Wade stops here. We’re going to celebrate the greatness of Miami’s favorite son by breaking down the 10 best games of his outstanding career.
Let’s get started.
