Miami Heat: Former Champion, Norris Cole, Calls Game For USA Over Puerto Rico

A guy who knows that culture all too well and a former two-time Miami Heat NBA champion during the Big 3 Era, Norris Cole is an example of that. And in fact, that never say die mentality would show up big for Cole on Thursday.

Needing a bucket for his team with the clock ticking down in the final period of the game, Cole found himself with the rock and a chance to break the tie.

And that’s just what the former champion did. Like champions can and do, especially those with the Miami Heat, Cole came up with a clutch bucket when his team needed it the most in a direct knockout matchup against Puerto Rico.
