After the statue unveiling ceremony, Zaire had shared a post of the celebrations. In one of the clips, he says, “I’m passing the phone to the GOAT, you all check it out.” Obviously, it was his father who was celebrating the special day and shouted, “Set in stone!” As soon as the beat dropped, Dwyane Wade’s excitement got a little out of hand. The disturbed camera angle meant the Miami Heat icon had stumbled and we weren’t wrong.

What could be more fulfilling for Dwyane Wade than celebrating her daughter’s birthday? The answer is on that particular day itself, the Heat legend celebrated his mother’s birthday as well. D-Wade said on his IG story, “I love showing up for her,” as the family celebrated Jolinda’s 70th birthday.

And just days before, right after the statue unveiling, he had his A game up once again. To celebrate his wife, Gabrielle Union’s day, he organized a surprise party. With close friends and family already there for his ceremony, the surprise was at Miami Beach’s Casadonna. “This is 52. This is grown woman s–t.
