Harnessing some playoff Thunder

Wade honored

Before the game, Heat guard Dwyane Wade was presented with the NBA Cares Community Assist Award for March, recognizing his response to the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.

Wade and his wife, Gabrielle Union, donated $200,000 toward getting students to the "March for Our Lives" event in Washington last month.

"I came back to this city at a time when I was needed, when my voice was needed," Wade said.

An interested spectator was Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, who sat midcourt with Heat CEO Nick Arison, his former manager with the Blue Devils.

Coach K was one of three accomplished college coaches at the game.
