Dwyane Wade is considering season-ending surgery to repair his dislocated left shoulder, which would be the biggest loss yet for the Miami Heat during their rocky reign as NBA champions.
The All-Star guard was hurt in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's 112-102 loss to the Rockets. He flew home early Thursday in a private plane and was examined at a hospital by team physician Harlan Selesnick, who conducted a battery of tests.
"Wade is presently weighing his treatment options provided to him by the Heat medical staff," the team said in a statement. "Wade still needs to discuss these options with his family and Heat president and head coach Pat Riley."
Wade's injury stung especially hard because it came in the first game in which he, Riley and Shaquille O'Neal were together since mid-November. After losing at Dallas on Thursday, Miami is 26-28 and just 1 1/2 games ahead of ninth-place New Jersey in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Only once since 1970 has the defending NBA champion failed to make the playoffs — Chicago in 1999.
Wade was on defense Wednesday when his left arm collided with the Rockets' Shane Battier and awkwardly stretched back. Wade walked off the court hunched over in pain and sat on the bench in tears as his shoulder was examined. He then left in a wheelchair.
Wade bruised the same shoulder in a game Feb. 13.

Surgery isn't normally something considered for a shoulder dislocation. Perhaps it's a 3rd degree acromioclavicular injury. The problem with deciphering this stuff is that the reporting doesn't give enough info to talk about, but that doesn't seem to stop anybody.

Well Brit, it's like this ...Shoulder is Dislocated. can have surgery but that will end the season for him... He's waiting on a second opinion, I thnk and then they will make a decision on whether to have the surgery now or try to wait and play through it....

ok, i'm getting your concept, yet Kwame Brown? that's basically disrespectful. LeBron James is bigger than Dwyane Wade. Kobe Bryant is bigger than Dwyane Wade. i do no longer want to start any arguments, i'm in hassle-free terms answering a question.

If you ask me that injury didn't look serious but he was in A LOT of pain, accroding to Yahoo Sports, he is out for the regular season but back in the playoffs, but if your worrying about fantasy basketball, he's done, and you are most likely done as well.

He is considering season-ending surgery on the arm. I think he should get the surgery because if he doesn't, the shoulder will never be the same.
