The Basketball Hall of Fame inducting Wade is a just reward for his remarkable career. The four-time NBA champion and father of four has had an immense impact on the Miami Heat organization. Drafted as the fifth overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft, Wade quickly endeared himself to the city of Miami, earning the nickname ?Flash? for his lightning-quick moves on the court.
Wade helped led the Heat to their first-ever NBA title in only his third season with the organization, overcoming a two-game deficit in the Finals and demonstrating his extraordinary talent and competitiveness. Wade was noted for his excellent skills, particularly in critical situations, during his 16-year NBA career. He was a 13-time NBA All-Star, and his ability to perform under duress gave him a reputation as one of the most clutch players of all time.?
