Miami Heat Poke Fun At Gradey Dick, Anthony Black Jersey Swap On Social Media

The Miami Heat referenced the Orlando Magic's deleted post of Toronto Raptors' Gradey Dick and Anthony Black's jersey swap by using a similar caption

The Miami Heat's social media team had fun on Wednesday night with a subtle reference to what is becoming an iconic photograph across the NBA.

Toronto Raptors sharpshooter Gradey Dick and Orlando Magic guard Anthony Black swapped jerseys following Sunday's game. The message could've been deemed inappropriate by some viewers. The Magic posted the picture with the caption "class of '23," which was later deleted.

The Heat seemingly poked fun at this moment with a jersey swap between Caleb Martin and former Heat forward Max Strus, which was captioned "class of '19" on X.

Black and Dick are having rollercoaster rookie seasons as the Magic fight for a strong playoff seed while the Raptors are likely hoping for a high draft pick. Meanwhile, Martin and Strus are thriving in their limited roles for the Heat and Cleveland Cavaliers, respectively.

Dick bursted out in laughter when asked about the infamous swap while Black has yet to comment on the matter.

“That’s my guy. I’ve been playing against and with him since my middle school days," Dick said. "If I played with them growing up, and they’re my guys, then I’ll jersey swap with them."

Regardless of the context surrounding Black and Dick's swap, it's wholesome to see former teammates Martin and Strus connecting after the Heat's win.
