The Golden State Warriors looked like they were about to walk out of AmericanAirlines Arena with another victory. Not so fast, as Flash came up with the huge shot to snatch victory out of the reigning champions' hands. Below are the five top player performances and highlights from the Warriors vs Heat game on Wednesday (February 27).
Dwyane Wade - Miami Heat
It's his final season, and Wade isn't expected to win MVP, or even another NBA title. However, the NBA All-Star is still finding ways to contribute and help the Heat win. Wednesday night saw him throw up a miracle buzzer-beater bank shot to give Miami the 126-125 win. Wade finished with 25 points, seven rebounds, and four assists for the game.
