This Day In HEAT History: Dwyane Wade’s Playoff Career-High Against The Celtics

After a gut-wrenching loss to the Celtics in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference First Round, the HEAT found themselves in no man’s land down 3-0.

And while Miami would eventually fall to the soon-to-be Eastern Conference Champion, Dwyane Wade ensured it wouldn’t be a sweep.

On April 25, 2010, with his team’s back against the wall, Wade responded with a playoff career-high 46 points on 16-of-24 shooting from the field, including 5-of-7 from deep, and 9-of-14 from the line, five boards, five assists and two steals to give the HEAT a 101-92 victory.
