Dwyane Wade on his return to the Miami Heat: “I always felt that one day it would happen”

Dwyane Wade did not see this coming.

Not right now, anyway. He has fully believed for many months that he would eventually return to the Miami Heat, though he figured it would happen in a free-agent deal this coming summer and not on a Thursday afternoon while he was headed into Cleveland’s practice facility for a workout with LeBron James.

Then came the text from agent Leon Rose: “Call me 911,” he wrote.

“So if you get a text like that and the trade deadline is coming up and you know the team that you’re on is going to be very active, you know something is going down with you,” Wade said.
