Orlando Magic’s Cole Anthony And Jalen Suggs Attempted LeBron James, Dwyane Wade Iconic Moment

The Orlando Magic’s backcourt of Jalen Suggs and Cole Anthony tried to replicate LeBron James and Dwyane Wade’s iconic celebration from their time on the Miami Heat

The iconic photograph of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade from their time on the Miami Heat is one of the most memorable in NBA history.

This moment was recently recreated by Orlando Magic guards Cole Anthony and Jalen Suggs. Well, sort of.

In their win over the Washington Wizards, Suggs and Anthony linked up on an alley-oop. James and Wade’s connection came off a bounce pass by the Hall of Fame guard.

"And so I took a quick peek, made sure it was him and not someone else, and I threw it," Wade shared with NBA TV. "A bounce pass. The fundamentals of the game led to one of the most iconic moments."

The Magic's backcourt attempt failed, resulting in a hilarious photo comparison. Although their recreation did not work out as intended, Orlando has plenty to be happy about this season.

Their 13-5 record places them No. 2 in the Eastern Conference. Star Paolo Banchero and the rest of the young core are performing at a high level to start the year.

Suggs and Anthony are not the only athletes to attempt this moment.

In the NFL, Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith made a much more respectable effort against the Dallas Cowboys.

Could Miami Heat Target Dorian Finney-Smith This Season?
