Dwyane Wade on Reading Michael Jordan’s Rare Air Book as a Kid: ’Dang, Jordan Is Human’
Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls dominated the 90s, changing the face of the NBA. Many players who are in the league right now, or were in the league, grew up watching Jordan. This includes retired Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade who grew up as a huge fan of Jordan.
In a recent appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, Wade talked about his new photobook/memoir ‘Dwyane’, Steph Curry, his time playing with LeBron James, and about Jordan.
Interestingly, it seems like Wade’s book draws a bit of inspiration from the ‘Rare Air’ book by the Bulls legend.
