The Chicago Bulls and Dwyane Wade have been rumored to be in talks of a buyout but until that or a trade happens, Wade is expected to be in Bulls uniform next season. That is not stopping the highly-revered Dion Waiters from hoping to see Wade back in South Beach sooner or later, however. In fact Waiters has made it appear as though he's actively trying to recruit Wade to come play him with the Miam Heat.
Asked by fan on Twitter to court Wade to “come home” to Miami, Waiters quickly replied that he's already working on it.
Waiters, who just signed a fresh four-year $52 million deal this summer with the Heat after averaging 15.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game last season, has long expressed his admiration of Wade. With enough confidence to fill the AmericanAirlines Arena, Waiters even once compared himself to Wade, as told to Miami Herald's Barry Jackson back in March.
“We've got the same initials, our games are similar,” Waiters said. “Difference is, he's got them three rings. He's a Finals MVP. Top three best shooting guards all time. I'm chasing that. He's one of my favorite players, one of the players I idolized my game after. When he's playing against me, I'm checking things he's doing.
It's unlikely Wade will get out of Chicago right now, let alone find his way back to Miami, where he won three rings, but the thought of The Flash donning Miami Hear colors again obviously excites fans and Waiters alike.
