Dwyane Wade will be out at least two to three weeks with a hamstring strain, according to Joseph Goodman of the Miami Herald. In all likelihood, it will be longer: Wade himself said he can't put a timetable on it.

Wade made himself available to the media to discuss his injury and said it was “in the belly of the hamstring” and that the “body responds differently when you get older” and he “has to figure it out.” He closed the press conference saying that the media won’t be seeing him “for a while.”
Wade injured his hamstring on Jan. 27 in a game against the Milwaukee Bucks and was awaiting results. With the current timeline, he will miss the All-Star game even if he gets selected.
Wade is averaging 21.4 points and 5.4 assists. The Heat are ranked seventh in the East, leading the ninth place Charlotte Hornets by only two wins, so the loss of their leading scorer for at least nine games could have serious consequences to their playoff chances.
