    <font style="background-color: #c0c0c0">"Wade, however, was not in the game at the time, with those two foul shots actually taken by center Alonzo Mourning.

    The mistake is easily explained, with Mourning wearing No. 33 and Wade wearing No. 3.

    The revised box score will reflect Wade with 33 points, instead of the 35 initially recorded. Wade established a season high with 33 points in Friday's loss at Golden State.

    Mourning, who questioned the box score as soon as he glanced at it in the Staples Center locker room, is now credited with eight points, instead of the initial six."</font></p>

    He really needs every point.</p>

    Mourning probably memorizes his statline during the game to make sure he gets his credit lol.</p>

    Or writes it down on the bench.</p>
