It is common knowledge to say that Miami Heat legend and recent Hall of Fame inductee Dwyane Wade is South Florida’s greatest winner. Now he is aptly honored as he received a statue outside the organization’s Wade County arena, and it became official on Sunday. During halftime of the Heat’s game against the Charlotte Hornets team president Pat Riley announced that Wade will soon have the first statue in franchise history outside of Kaseya Center.
“I’m not really the person who gets lost for words. I’ve got too many words actually. I didn’t dream of this, though,” Wade said after the halftime announcement. “I’m just so grateful. I’m very grateful. … I can’t wait for families to be able to experience what that’s gonna be like from all around the world, to come and have a moment of the culture that will be out front. I can’t wait until that day, man, so I’m excited.”
CONGRATS D WADE !
