The Miami Heat notched their 20th win of the season after beating the Boston Celtics, 115-99, on Thursday night.

After the game, Celtics guard Terry Rozier exchanged jerseys with his childhood hero, Dwyane Wade.

Wade, who announced during the offseason that this will be his final year in the NBA, has received tributes from opposing teams whenever Miami visits their home floor this season.

In addition, the tradition of trading jerseys is one way for players like Rozier to show respect and appreciation for the three-time champion.

He's had similar exchanges with LeBron James, Donovan Mitchell, and CJ McCollum.
