Heat Head to Air Force Base for Training Camp

Team to spend week at Eglin AF Base before season

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and the rest of the Miami Heat are taking training camp to Eglin Air Force Base in Florida's Panhandle.

The Heat announced Wednesday night that they'll train for six days at the military installation in Fort Walton Beach from Sept. 28 to Oct. 3. Miami has typically held training camp at its home arena.

Heat president Pat Riley says the team is "extremely humbled to train in an environment where service, sacrifice and discipline are the norm."
