Dwyane Wade made a game-winner while wearing shoes honoring Parkland shooting victim

Joaquin Oliver was buried in Wade’s jersey, so Wade honored him Tuesday with an amazing game.

Dwyane Wade dropped 27 points against the 76ers, but no bucket was bigger than the final one he hit over Ben Simmons to win the game for the Heat.

Now, that’s very good. But the best part? He did it all while wearing shoes dedicated to Joaquin Oliver — one of the students who was killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida on Feb. 14.
