Heat legend Dwyane Wade continues to play at a high level during his final NBA season. The future Hall of Famer scored a team-high 19 points off the bench. Wade played 23 minutes and was efficient from start to finish, shooting 8-of-12 from the floor and 3-of-5 from the 3-point line.

Miami entered Thursday making around 11 3-pointers a game, good for eighth in the NBA. They were 14th in the league in 3-point percentage. They will rise in that category after Thursday's performance.
