LeBron perplexed after Heat misspell Wade's name
Twitter
On Saturday night, Miami Heat game ops misspelled the name of Dwyane Wade - a 15-year Heat veteran as synonymous with the franchise as any player in its history.

To make matters worse, the video board misspelling occurred as Wade spoke to the crowd before his final home opener.
Wade's good friend and former Heat teammate LeBron James was understandably perplexed.
🤦🏾♂️!! I mean he’s only played there 100 out of 101 1/2 seasons in his career. At least know how to spell my brother name “Dwyane” https://t.co/plXYX3AX32
