Dwyane Wade has confirmed he will stay with the Miami Heat to help the club rebuild following the recent departure of superstar LeBron James to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Wade, who joined James in opting out of his contract last month, took to social media to end any speculation about him leaving the Heat.
"Home Is Where The Heart Is... My Home, My City, My House.. #HeatLifer," Wade tweeted.
By opting out of his prior contract, Wade gave the Heat more money to spend on talent to replace James but ensured greater salaries in future years.
"Dwyane has been the franchise cornerstone for this team since the day he arrived 11 years ago," said Heat president Pat Riley.
"He has shown his commitment to the Heat many times over the course of his career and has always been willing to sacrifice in order to help build this team into a champion.
"This time is no different. I am ecstatic to have him back in the fold and I am confident that Dwyane, as always, will be leading this team as we look to contend for NBA championships."
