Dwyane Wade had quite the return from a seven-game absence on Sunday, scoring 27 points with five assists on 11-of-18 shooting in a close Miami Heat victory.
After seven games off due to a hamstring strain, a 32-minute workload can take its toll.
Following the win, Wade was being interviewed on the sideline, as is custom for a team's top performer. Obviously sensing his fatigue, Wade's wife, actress Gabrielle Union, took the liberty of answering questions on her husband's behalf.
She seemed please with Wade's performance overall - he got the elusive butt-pat, after all - but it seems Wade may be put to work later with an eye toward improving his 5-of-9 mark from the free throw line.
