Nice: High school senior's internet plea to Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade pays off as he becomes her surprise prom date

A high school senior without a date for the prom made a Hail Mary shot with her YouTube video asking Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade to accompany her. 

And against the odds her cheeky request paid off when the basketball heartthrob arrived ready to accompany his date to last night's dance

Nicole Muxo, 18, made a video on April 20 asking the shooting guard if he'd take time out of his play-off schedule to accompany her to the Archbishop Coleman Carroll High School prom.

Despite his knee injury and it being a rare night off the court, he decided to surprise her - turning up to the delight of the teen and her senior year. 

Ms Muxo, a senior at the South Florida school, is a huge fan of the Heat but particularly Wade. 

'I was so surprised. I didn’t expect it at all,' Nicole told CBS Miami.

The next day she took to Twitter again to thank the player adding: 'You made my dreams come true.'

Nice one!
