Heat guard Wayne Ellington looks back at his March Madness experience

Posted Mar 16, 2017
What do you remember from that 2009 national title run? Wayne Ellington : “It was unbelievable. It’s like a feeling you can’t really explain unless you have been a champion. And I think it’s even different at every level. It’s different when you’re an NBA champion, it’s different when you’re an NCAA champion. But it just felt amazing. It’s hard for me to describe, honestly.” (Palm Beach Post)
