Tbh people forget this but the Minny career high game came after Zion was in Covid protocol for 5-7 days.
I actually thought he looked heavier in that game than he did 1-2 weeks prior.
I actually think we could arguably pin the initial hamstring injury on Zion pushing it too hard after coming back from Covid.

Based on what?

top 4 finisher of all time (Jordan, Bron, Wade)
Wade was good at the rim but if you're going to include guys like Lebron and Zion and not just guards, Wade doesn't make the list. Shaq and Durant would 100% be in over Wade and just off the top of my head Embid, Giannis, Duncan, Garnett, and Kawhi would be over him.

Finishers are wings, wtf is Duncan and Embid even mentioned lol. Giannis has the %, and I guess he has the finishing move bag so good shite (spin step, euro, windmill step, hop step) but he does not have the handle to beat the first defender like the others. Like, he ain't even close in that aspect.
Kawhi? Lmao. Kawhi doesn't match in any category. Doesn't match them in FG% on drives (Wade maxed out at 74% in 09, stayed in the high 60's for 10 straight years) and Kawhi doesn't have the finishing move bag or the bag on the perimeter to constantly get to the basket.
I'm pretty sure that was a homer choice lol, but let's explain how basketball works. Kawhi Leonardo shoots A LOT of mid range jump shots. D Wade NEVER pulled up after getting past the first defender. Wade never pulled up between defenders, he would slice whole defenses over and over again slashing ALL THE WAY to the basket to finish at the basket. Like, more than anybody else on the list lmao.
% wise, Wade is the highest % slasher on possessions in the last 30 years bro. And that's attempts, his % is historically high finishing those drives.
Kawhi? Lmao. Kawhi doesn't match in any category. Doesn't match them in FG% on drives (Wade maxed out at 74% in 09, stayed in the high 60's for 10 straight years) and Kawhi doesn't have the finishing move bag or the bag on the perimeter to constantly get to the basket.

And how does KD register as a better finisher than the best slashers and the highest % scorers on drives since the stat was tracked?
KD takes much less attempts and shoots a lower % than those players in their primes.
This is off the top of my head from what I remember, you can do the stat research yourself if you want confirmation.

So you're so certain of the % but yet you don't know the stats? Inside 4 feet Wade has an elite FG% of 65%. KD is all time elite at 72%, just barely behind Shaq. But yes, keep shouting at the sky trying to argue that a guy who will go down close to a top 10 player of all time and someone who had some of the best single offensive seasons ever isn't nearly as good at the rim as Dewayne Wade. You sound like someone who would get along real good with D Wades son.
