The Miami Heat were one of the most successful teams in the NBA when they had LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on the roster.
However, they nearly added a fourth star to the mix in 2011—Chris Paul.
Speaking on The Why with Dwyane Wade on iHeart Podcasts, Wade revealed that Paul didn't get traded to Miami because he didn't want to give up his No. 3, which was eventually retired by the Heat in 2020.
"We was talking about me coming to Miami. We was talking about who was gonna have the ball in their hands, how it's going to work," Paul said (1 hour, 28 minute mark).
