From inside the Heat locker room the very night Terry Rozier got injured a very unlikely hero was formed…

Erik spolsetra: Hey man I need to ask you for a favor

Unexpected hero: anything for you man

ES: I need to ask you to come out of retirement to help our team

UH: Man I just planned a trip to Barbados. Are we seriously doing this?

ES: We just lost our boy Terry Rozier. We need you.

UH: I’ll think about and I’ll get back to you soon

ES: Thanks man. I hope you join us

Also in the locker room:

Nikola Jovic: Man you had an amazing game today Tyler

Tyler Herro: I guess I did. You had a nice one too tho

NJ: 8 points isn’t that much tho

TH: you got 9 rebounds tho

NJ: you’re right. I can’t believe Terry went down.

TH: yeah. I guess patty mills will take his spot

NJ: probably

One week later

News reporter: Well we have breaking news from our studio in Los Angeles

NR: The struggling Heat have signed veteran Kemba Walker for a minimum one year contract. The Heat have been struggling since Terry Rozier got injured with a 0-3 record since then.

ES: Hey man thanks for signing with us

KW: Yeah I just wanted to go to Barbados. I was gonna sign anyway

ES: We could’ve used you then

KW: yeah but I NEEDED that vacation

ES: Ok. There’s this new barbecue place that just opened. I’ll take you there

KW: Bet. Make sure they have extra coleslaw for me

ES: You know you’re not getting any. That stuff is all mine

KW: You see you got it all wrong. That coleslaw is mine

ES: Fine. I get the steak fries tho
