Kwame Brown is a former number one pick most famously known for the time he teamed up with Kobe Bryant in Lakers. Brown has recently resurfaced in the media with his hot takes on topics related to the NBA. But could Kwame Brown have gone a bit too far this time? Brown had always restricted himself to keeping his takes on the players alone. But this time, he went after Dwyane Wade’s family with his comments.

After Dwyane Wade’s child Zaya Wade posted a picture as a tribute to Kobe Bryant, Kwame Brown seemed to be unsettled about it. He felt that Dwyane was wrong in allowing his child to do a tribute like that.

Therefore, it’s understandable that he did that, considering he was teammates with Kobe for three seasons. However, his comments that followed may have been way too harsh for a teenager. Moreover, it seemed harshly and unrealistically critical of Wade.

Brown said, “I don’t think you level up as a man.” He further added, “You are letting your woman control your house. You played this thing called basketball. This is a game. Kobe Bryant’s children are not honoring him by wearing a dress. Kobe Bryant’s wife is not honoring him by wearing a dress. I don’t think nobody else is honoring Kobe Bryant by wearing a dress. Kobe Bryant was a masculine man.”

Was Kwame Brown right to take shots at Dwyane Wade?

In an era of social media where people are even held accountable for their opinions, Brown chose his battles with a teenager. And that too over a subjective issue like a tribute to a legend who is no more with us.
