The Miami Heat traded guard Kyle Lowry to the Charlotte Hornets for guard Terry Rozier on Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reported first on Tuesday.

Shortly after this news broke, fans found old tweets from Rozier about the Heat from back in 2010 and ’11 when he was in high school. It appears that the 29-year-old guard was a Miami fan back then, and if it was his dream to be part of the team, it’s now coming true.

“Lets go heat!!!” one tweet read from 2010.

“Lets get this money heat…” another from 2011 read, which fans saw as a foreshadowing message from Rozier.

The 2010–11 season was a big year for the Heat as it marked LeBron James’s first season in Miami. The team reached the NBA Finals before ultimately losing to the Dallas Mavericks.

Rozier now joins a 24–19 Heat team that is coming off of an NBA Finals appearance, which they lost 4–1 to the Denver Nuggets.

In 30 starts this season, Rozier is averaging 23.2 points, 6.6 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game.
