Let's try to answer grids 5 and 8 for Friday's NBA HoopGrids: which Miami Heat players have also played for the OKC Thunder and Chicago Bulls? It should also be noted that any player who played for the Seattle SuperSonics can be used for grids 4, 5 and 6.

Gary Payton spent the first 13 years of his NBA career with the Sonics. Payton suited up for the Milwaukee Bucks, LA Lakers and Boston Celtics before signing with the Heat in 2005. He was a valuable member of Miami's championship team a year later.

Meanwhile, Dwyane Wade will go down as the greatest player in Heat history, so it was wrong to see him suit up for the Bulls in the 2016-17 season. He also played for the Cleveland Cavaliers before returning to Miami and ending his career there.
