Udonis Haslem, Heat reflect on rare 20-year NBA career -
Any of those things happen differently, it all changes. He probably wouldn’t be with the Miami Heat right now. Maybe never.
But ask anyone with the Heat, and they insist Haslem - the team captain who’ll have his No. 40 jersey retired next season - has been vital for two decades. “He’s always had tremendous courage,” Riley said. “Whatever endeavor, he rises to another level. And you need that. He was for real. He was that kind of man, someone who has tremendous pride being from Miami.”
Haslem had backboard-breaking dunks as a high school freshman, starred at Miami High, then starred at Florida but struggled with weight and NBA teams passed on drafting him in 2002. Atlanta brought him in for a camp that summer, but signed Ira Newble to its last roster spot instead.
