Dwyane Wade: A conglomeration of emotions
Being inducted into the Hall of Fame is a dream for every basketball player. There could be no better farewell gift to honor Dwyane’s 16 years of legendary performances. To ease up his nerves, Wade, along with his father and Pau Gasol, decided to take it out on the golf course. He shared the video of BTS on his Twitter handle and captioned it “Feeling all the feels.”
Notably, Pau and D-Wade were inducted into the Hall of Fame together this weekend.

The magical enshrinement of Wade
Dwyane Wade rounded up his retirement in a historical way. He joined the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, which has only opened its doors to 436 individuals in its 64 years.
He started the weekend in flashy fashion. D-Wade and his posse, including friends, family and children, took a private jet to Connecticut. The plane was bedazzled with Wade’s name and his various brands. Of course, his wine company made the cut!
On the day of the event, Wade looked dapper in a bespoke suit. His idol Allen Iverson honored Dwyane by wearing a special coat etched with Wade and the Number 3. The 25 min emotional speech by Flash and the way he embraced his father was sublime. He had his fans laughing and crying during his big night.
