Anthony Chiang: Micky Arison reacts to HOF honor in press launch issued by the Warmth: “I’m deeply honored to be becoming a member of Warmth greats Alonzo Mourning, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Shaquille O’Neal, Ray Allen, Tim Hardaway, Gary Payton and naturally my pricey good friend Pat Riley within the Basketball Corridor of Fame. When my father Ted Arison introduced the Warmth to Miami nearly 40 years in the past, he didn’t accomplish that for accolades. He did it as a result of he thought it was finest for Miami. Madeleine, Nick, Kelly and I’ve been the proud stewards of that imaginative and prescient and are so pleased with what the Warmth imply each in our group and to followers around the globe. For some, that is a person honor. However for me, this speaks to what our complete Warmth household – gamers, coaches, workers and followers – have constructed collectively. “I look forward to enshrinement weekend in September, as well as future enshrinement weekends where more members of our Heat family will enter the Basketball Hall of Fame.” -via x.com / April 5, 2025
