Dwyane Wade Sinks Wild Spinning Buzzer-Beater 3 to Power Heat Past Warriors

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade provided one of the year's best NBA highlights when he knocked down a one-legged buzzer-beating three-pointer that catapulted his team to a 126-125 win over the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday.

The Heat trailed 124-120 with 18.1 seconds remaining, but Wade then hit a three-pointer to pull Miami within one. He shot the game-winner after Warriors forward Kevin Durant made one of two free throws to put Golden State up two.

Wade had 25 points on 10-of-17 shooting and seven rebounds in 26 minutes for the Heat, who improved to 27-33. The Warriors fell to 43-18.

"It's special for me," Wade said postgame per Nick Friedell of ESPN.com. "...I've been in this position so many times, and so many times you don't make the shot. And the one I make is a one-legged flick from my chest, it's crazy...

"I told [Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry] I needed this one on my way out. So y'all get enough, you got enough. I think the one thing cool for me is to be able to do this when you've got younger teammates that heard about some of the things you do, but don't always get an opportunity to see it. So it was cool to be able to do it in front of those guys as well."
