VIDEO: Wade Makes Game-Winner to Get Mayor's Cup

Dwyane Wade and Devin Hester picked teams to toss footballs and shoot hoops Friday during their sports camps. See how it went down.

During the New Lenox Experience sports camps on Friday, NBA star Dwyane Wade and Chicago Bears leader Devin Hester went head-to-head in a cross-sport competition.

Hester and Wade each picked four teammates and tried to throw footballs through a tire, and then had a shootout. Wade's team took a 5-1 lead before gracefully allowing Hester a chance to tie the score with two 2-point free throws, which he did.

But Wade, as he has so many times before, nailed the game-winning shot with a 40-foot 3-pointer. He claimed Mayor Tim Baldermann's trophy, spurring Hester to say he'd be back in New Lenox next year.
