UGA basketball coach celebrates with Dwayne Wade for final NBA game
Tom Crean, whose biggest claim to fame is coaching Dwayne Wade in college, attended the final game for the future NBA Hall of Famer on Wednesday night.
Wade and the Miami Heat played at the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, and Crean had front-row seats to the historic moment.

The two remain close friends after Crean recruited, developed and coached Wade while both were at Marquette.
Crean, who is now UGA’s basketball coach, had a rough first year with the Bulldogs, leading the team a 11-21 record, including 2-16 in SEC games.
However, help is on the way with Crean putting together the best recruiting class in school history, with 5-star guard Anthony “Ant Man” Edwards as the headliner.
