With less than eight minutes remaining, the Miami Heat were in a 12-point hole and their superstar guard had already established a franchise record for most turnovers in a game.
“I knew it had to get better,” Dwyane Wade said.
And it did.
Wade had 41 points – including a team-record 24 points in the final quarter – as Miami pulled off a big rally to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 92-89 in a game that had some bizarre occurrences down the stretch.
The all-star guard set three team records: most free throws made in a game (23, in 24 chances) and most turnovers (12).
“I knew it was a matter of time before I got going,” Wade said.
“I was just hoping it came soon.”
