Bulls' Dwyane Wade: Leads team in scoring in comeback win

Wade (wrists) submitted 23 points (8-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks across 33 minutes in a 128-121 overtime victory over the Suns on Friday.

Analysis:

Wade had missed the Bulls' final three games before the All-Star break while contending with soreness in both of his wrists, but the veteran shooting guard looked at full strength in his return to action Friday. He was instrumental in leading his team to an 11-point fourth-quarter comeback, pouring in 14 of his team-high scoring haul over the game's final 15 minutes. Coach Fred Hoiberg said prior to Friday's game that Wade would suit up in both halves of the Bulls' back-to-back set, so expect to see the 35-year-old back out there for a normal workload Saturday against the Cavaliers.
