Dwyane Wade has always been a man of many talents. Whether on or off the court, he has always remained a multi-faceted character. Despite excelling in several ventures post retirement, the 3x NBA champion still seems to get jitters from time to time. That endearing doubt was on full display as he took to Instagram to show off his latest fixation.
The Miami Heat legend is now taking up photography as a hobby. During his world tour, the Hall of Famer was always out, ready with a camera. Finally, after much deliberation, he has chosen to showcase his talents to the world.
“I was a little nervous to showcase the photos that I took over the last year and a half, while traveling around the world.” But, he had the support and appreciation of his friends, Bobby Methelus in particular, to overcome those fears.

The many faces of Dwyane Wade
As a basketball player, one of the key components of the 2006 Finals MVP was his versatility. While he was a one-of-a-kind athlete, he was equally as proficient from the mid-range as he was under the basket. Further, he was also an exceptional playmaker, especially at the SG slot.

While his offense got the headlines, D-Wade was phenomenal on the defensive end as well. To this day, he holds the record for most blocks by a guard in NBA history. But, what’s given his career more gravitas is a willingness to show that same versatility off the court. Since retirement, the 13x All-Star has taken on many ventures.
Whether it be hosting his game show, despite insecurities for that as well, or taking on an ownership role with the Utah Jazz, The Flash has been as versatile as they come. Now, he’s even moving into a producer’s chair for an upcoming venture.
