LOOK: Heat’s Justise Winslow has great reaction to being traded

Justise Winslow trade

The Miami Heat on Wednesday night acquired former NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala from the Memphis Grizzlies and promptly signed him to a two-year, $30 million extension.

The initial report did not include that Miami had sent former first-round pick Justise Winslow to Memphis in the deal.

At that point, former Heat star Dwyane Wade took to social media to note that it was a great deal for the team that defined the vast majority of his Hall of Fame worthy career.

As news that he had been traded to Memphis broke, Winslow had a tremendous reaction to Wade’s post.

This is the wholesome NBA pettiness that we’ve been waiting for with the NBA trade deadline approaching. It happens every year. It was just a bit delayed in starting this year.

In Winslow’s defense, it is surprising to see Miami move on from the injured 23-year-old wing. He averaged 12.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists last season. Winslow is also among the best perimeter defenders in the game.

That’s the cost of getting Andre.
