Wayne Ellington’s Heat circle of life remains one of renewal

Posted Oct 29, 2023
Ask Wayne Ellington about this return to the Miami Heat as an assistant coach and the former NBA 3-point specialist says “it’s like home.” But listen to Ellington chronicle this path back to the Heat, and it also is about renewal, just as it was during his initial arrival as a player in 2016. Meaningful then. Meaningful now. That rebirth came in the wake of tragedy. (South Florida Sun Sentinel)
