Clippit
Miami Heat All-Star guard Dwyane Wade all but willed his team to a pivotal Game 6 victory Friday against the Charlotte Hornets, scoring eight of their last 10 points in a 97-90 win.
After hitting his second 3-pointer in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, Wade high-fived NFL linebacker Julius Peppers, who spent the first eight years of his career playing in the area for the Carolina Panthers.
Peppers, who was sitting courtside, was likely rooting for the hometown Hornets, but after a performance like Wade's, he couldn't help but show some love to "Flash."
