Justise Winslow has great response for people misspelling his name
The Miami Heat received a bit of a gift when Justise Winslow fell to them at No. 10 in Thursday’s NBA Draft. The 19-year-old should be a valuable asset off of Erik Spoelstra’s bench. He could also step into a starting role should Dwyane Wade and Luol Deng leave via free agency.
Not surprisingly, after the pick was announced, Winslow was mentioned often on social media. Unfortunately, more than a few people spelled his first name as “Justice” instead of Justise, the correct spelling. Gabrielle Union, whose husband has a unique spelling of his first name, wanted to let Winslow know what he would be in for. He provided a great line in response.
Hey, Justise Winslow… Welcome to Miami, now get used to ppl misspelling your 1st name. I know a guy who dealt w/ the same thing :)

Touché.
Winslow, of course, helped Duke capture a national championship earlier this year so he’s no stranger to winning. However, based on a Twitter search for “Justice Winslow”, it appears that wasn’t enough.
