Chris Bosh helped the Miami Heat win two championships during his time there but the relationship between the team and player soured following a dispute over whether it was safe to return to the NBA after he was forced out by a diagnosis of blood clots during the 2015-16 campaign.

On Saturday, however, the former center donned Heat gear and took to the practice court with their players, handing out tips and pointers as he helped drill the squad.

Bosh spent time with team president Pat Riley at the American Airlines Arena on Friday and would later become one of the select few to receive an autographed jersey from Dwyane Wade after the vet helped the team overcome the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night.

"It's pretty cool, just him coming back, showing love," center Bam Adebayo said, via the SunSentinel. "He gave me a couple of tips. And just hearing from somebody who's been through this organization and has two championships, it's just something you can't get better than that."

"A few secrets," Adebayo said in relation to Bosh's mentorship. "But those are big shoes to fill.

"It's a blessing, obviously. You see he's in a good place right now even though he went through something."

The former star wasn't made available for comment himself but was seen joking around with the Heat squad after the win on Friday.

"We were chilling last night with my daughter, talking," Wade revealed. "I didn't tell him I was going to give him my jersey, but I thought it would be good. I gave Bron (LeBron James) my jersey in L.A. We all are what we are in this game because of each other, as well, so I thought it was great that I can give him a little piece of this last dance.

"This organization is a championship organization and is respected the way that it is because of that guy helping bring two championships here."

What This Means

There has been talk about a possible return for Bosh in recent times but the erstwhile big man appears to have come to terms with retirement, especially as he's still cashing cheques.

The 11-time All-Star reached a settlement agreement with the Heat and is earning $26.8 million this season, a sum mostly covered by insurance. His presence around the team, though, should have a good impact on the Heat's younger prospects, who are trying to forge their own paths in the NBA.
