Dwayne Wade Vows To Play In Game 5

Seemed to be injured during game 4

MIAMI (CBS4) ― Miami Heat All-Star guard Dwayne Wade was noticeably wincing during the team's game 4 playoff loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night. Tuesday, Wade said the back has remained sore and stiff, but he will play Wednesday night when the Heat travel to Atlanta for Game 5 of the first-round playoff series.

"I'll be ready," Wade told reporters. He indicated that he took medication for sleep after the game. Wade arrived at the AmericanAirlines Arena Tuesday morning to receive treatment and massage therapy and will continue receiving treatment until Wednesday night.

The first round best-of-seven series is tied at 2 game apiece.
