CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki and Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade said goodbye to the All-Star Game stage in style as both future Hall of Famers were honored during Sunday night's Team LeBron 178-164 victory over Team Giannis.
Nowitzki and Wade were added to the All-Star pool of players by NBA commissioner Adam Silver and both proud players appreciated the gesture and the emotional moments which were created throughout the weekend -- the biggest one coming between the third and fourth quarters when each player was presented a framed All-Star jersey by their team's captain and were joined at center court by the rest of the game's All-Stars for a picture.
