Wade is still too quick to handle

During the camp, Wade is seen playing around with local players. On his Instagram story, he jokingly said “I’m Old but He Challenged Me”. He seems to have dribbled away with a lot of ease and passed the ball to his son. Zaire is also part of the core team who is helping Wade to set up the academy.

It is not the only business venture the father-son duo is doing together. With D-Wade as your father, strong business acumen must be part of the genes.

Zaire continues on how his father was first on board with Thorne. Later when he got the opportunity to be a part of it with his dad, it was a very easy decision. Also, he shares how it was great for him to get to work with his dad for the first time. “(Dwyane Wade) was already on the Thorne family first. And once I was introduced to it, (there) was already kind of a natural connection there because I was already starting to look into it in my senior year. Once we saw there was an opportunity for both of us to partner with them … it was a no-brainer. It’s great to see how (my dad) approaches and takes business on. It was great, it was my first time doing something like this.”
