It’s time to take a walk down Miami Heat memory lane.

With the 2018-19 season rapidly approaching, Miami Heat fans are constantly checking any and all sources for the latest news on their team. And while the Heat have done what has been expected of them, their moves haven’t exactly made any huge waves in the NBA world.

(Then again, they’ve had to compete with the likes of LeBron James heading West and Carmelo Anthony briefly becoming a member of the Atlanta Hawks.)

We’re all happy with the re-signing of catch-and-shoot extraordinaire Wayne Ellington and we’re still awaiting any potential deals that will rid of us underachieving Hassan Whiteside.

But while we wait for any further deals out of president Pat Riley’s camp, it’s time to take a trip back in time and look at the Top 10 greatest single-game performances in franchise history.

(Who knows? Maybe Whiteside will read this article and be inspired to get back to his old productive ways before he became a burden and a detriment to the team.)

There were a lot of games and statistics to comb through, which proved to be quite a difficult task, especially when compiling the history of such a storied franchise like the Miami Heat into just one Top 10 list.

So, if you feel like I missed any great performances or unfairly snubbed your favorite players, please be sure to sound off and let me know.

Now, without further ado, we start with Number 10…

(Hint: we’re still waiting to hear if this player is returning this year or brushing up on his Chinese.)
