Wade Sticking It To His Knee Pain, Literally

jm
MIAMI (CBS4) ― Flash is hoping some ancient Chinese medicine will help him get ready for the playoffs.

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade is undergoing acupuncture therapy to relieve the pain of knee tendinitis. Wade missed 23 games with a dislocated left shoulder before returning last week, but as the post season looms, it's his knee, not the shoulder, that is causing him the most trouble.

The reigning N-B-A finals M-V-P will enter the playoffs this weekend with an average of almost 28 points per game, making him fourth in the league.
