For Wade, Chicago homecoming a 'special' moment

CHICAGO -- Dwayne Wade made his Chicago homecoming a memorable affair, scoring 22 points, six rebounds and five assists in a 105-99 win over the Boston Celtics on Thursday night. In his first regular-season appearance as a member of the Bulls, Wade had fans cheering from start to finish as he authored the beginning of a new chapter in his Hall of Fame career.

After being announced as "from Chicago" in the starting lineup introductions, Wade, who is from Robbins, Illinois, took a knee for a moment before making his way through a line of high-fives with some of his teammates.
