Before Wade was selected as the 5th pick in the 2003 draft, he spent 3 years at Marquette, which was the start of his basketball career. He excelled as a professional in this famous college and it was the start of his story that we all celebrate till today. It would be déjà vu for the NBA legend if Zaya decides to head to Marquette University. But that might be a big no as well.

The Marquette University is situated in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and D-Wade and his family are in California. There is a distance of more than 2000 miles between the two states. Looking at the close ties within the Wade family, it’s safe to say that Zaya might not prefer a distant spot like Wisconsin. However, that will not be a problem too if that is where she desires to go.
