Dwyane Wade's Jersey Retired by Heat

Dwyane Wade's No. 3 jersey was lifted into the rafters of AmericanAirlines Arena on Saturday.

In a halftime ceremony, Wade became the fifth player to have his jersey retired by the Miami Heat, following No. 33 Alonzo Mourning, No. 10 Tim Hardaway, No. 1 Chris Bosh and No. 23 Michael Jordan. Wade spent 15 seasons in Miami, highlighted by three championships, 13 All-Star appearances and a 2005-06 Finals MVP trophy.

The Heat celebrated Wade's career throughout the weekend as part of a three-night celebration. During Saturday's jersey retirement, Wade became emotional while he addressed the crowd and reflected on words from the late Kobe Bryant.
