Dwyane Wade played his final home game on Sunday, but Miami Heat and basketball fans will still have one more chance to watch the future of Hall of Famer play in the NBA for one last time.
Wade and coach Erik Spoelstra confirmed that the superstar guard will be available on Wednesday. The Heat will go up against the Brooklyn Nets at the Barclays Center in their final game of the season.
The 37-year-old superstar has already made it no secret since the start of the season that he is on his last playing year with the Heat. A lot of players, teams and fans have already paid tribute to Wade, and Wednesday's game is expected to be extra special for the former Marquette standout.
Wade confirms he is playing tomorrow. He doesn't know how much. A lot of Heat fans are going, and he knows it.

Former United States president Barack Obama also had a message for Wade and congratulated the 13-time All-Star for making Chicago natives like him proud by showing the city's spirit of resiliency.
The league also paid tribute to Wade earlier in the season. NBA commissioner Adam Silver opted to give Wade a spot in the 2019 NBA All-Star Game where he eventually ended up with Team LeBron.
