Heat guard Wayne Ellington appreciated every Christmas gift he got as a kid, but there’s one that stood out above all others.
“I loved those little toy race car tracks I would get,” said Ellington, who is tied for 13th in the league in three-pointers made with 2.6 per game. “The little cars that would fly around the track, I would spend some good time with my Dad playing with it.”
Ellington, 30, is celebrating his first Christmas as a father this year by getting his nine-month old son, Wayne Ellington III, a few toys and by spending as much quality time with him as he can.
