Dwyane Wade Gives His Take On Damian Lillard To Miami Heat Situation

Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade is making the media rounds before he is inducted into the Hall of Fame next month.

He recently spoke with Bobby Krivitsky of Inside The Celtics. Among the topics covered was the Heat's pursuit of Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard.

Wade said he is fine with whatever Lillard decides is best for him.

"It's his career, and he has, you have a vision for how you want it to go, and you try to accomplish that," Wade said. "And Dame has been trying to accomplish his career the way that he wants to see it go. And he has been wanting to see it go in Portland. That's why he's there. And so that's why he's been there."

Wade said Kevin Garnett and LeBron James went through the same dilemma when they left their original teams so they could win championships.

"And there's always gonna be talk about what someone should do," Wade said. "Kevin Garnett did this, this guy did this, LeBron went and did this. Dame has to do what Dame wants to do and understand that he gets one of these careers. You get one shot at this. And how does he want to see it go, how does he want to see these next."

Wade said he respects whatever choice Lillard makes.

"And that's something that we'll all have to wait and see," Wade said. "And everybody has to respect whatever that decision is. And whether you like it or not, you have to respect that the decision will be all what Dame wants to see for Dame's career and no one else's."
