Dwyane Wade hit one of the most epic game-winners of his storied career on Wednesday night, and the NBA world couldn’t get enough of it.
The shot came with just seconds left on the clock, and even though Wade was off balance when he heaved the shot towards the basket, it hit its mark and the Heat got a much-needed win over the Golden State Warriors, 126-125.
It didn’t take long for other stars around the league to get their Twitter fingers going to admire Wade’s epic shot.

While Kevin Durant didn’t head to Twitter, he did have some words of admiration following the game.

“He made a tremendous play,” Durant said following the game. “You don’t even think about shooting that type of shot and winning the game that way.”
Every game that passes now moves Wade, his fans, and the entire league closer to the end of his career. A game-winner like this, against what is widely considered to be the best team in the league, is truly special.
Hopefully, there are a few more magical moments in store for Wade and the Heat before the end of the 2018-19 season.
