Dwyane Wade registers another strong line, Miami blows big lead
Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade scored 22 points (7-of-17 field goals, 6-of-7 free throws) with 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 2 3-pointers, and 3 turnovers in 29.4 minutes of a 104-99 loss to the Orlando Magic on Tuesday.
What It Means:
Wade has forced his name into the conversation for Sixth Man of the Year honors with his play of late, but the Heat blew a 17-point lead and fell out of the last playoff spot in the East with the loss. He's averaging 21.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 2.0 steals, and 2.0 triples in the past two contests and will surely continue to give it his all in what may be Wade's final NBA games. Miami hosts the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday.
Wade scored 46.9 FanDuel points in the loss, his second-highest total of the season. He's averaging 27.0 FanDuel points per game overall.
