Update: Wade (knee) says he's "ahead of schedule" in his recovery, Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press reports.
Recommendation: Wade returned to the court last week and appears on track to return for the team's Oct. 30 season opener against the Celtics, just as he promised. Though Wade's brittle body may force him to take a diminished role in the Heat offense to LeBron James this season, he still remains an upper-tier option at shooting guard in fantasy leagues.
