Dwyane Wade Set To Join Jessica Alba and Other Hollywood Royalty, Replicating His Banana Boat Buddy?s Work From Two Years Ago

Dwyane Wade is joining an impressive set of people to turn into an expert! Considering the 3-time NBA champion’s artistic excellence, he has now been assigned a huge task for an upcoming summit. Two years ago, a 10-time All-Star and Wade’s banana boat buddy headlined the summit for a similar purpose. Speaking about ‘Juneteenth’, the former NBA veteran discussed the importance of it. However, now, Dwyane Wade has been pulled in for a different purpose.

The Miami Heat legend has made the news time and again. Anyhow, this one stands special and unforeseen. Ever since his retirement from the NBA, the Flash has made some major investments that have seen him become an owner in the league as well.

Dwyane Wade making major moves

Two months back, the former Heat star, along with his wife Gabrielle Union, won the President’s Award, which recognized their work and public service. There are only a few other sports legends like LeBron James and Muhammad Ali, who have been bestowed with this honor. Apart from social services, Wade has also made headlines for a few notable investments.

One of which is purchasing an ownership stake with the Utah Jazz. In addition, Wade has improved the value of the franchise by a large scale in a span of just two years. A report revealed that Jazz’s value increased by 28.5 % from 2021 to 2023. This excellence in business has helped Wade bag a speaker role in an upcoming summit.?

The CAA (Creative Artist’s Agency) Amplify Summit 2023 has announced American actress Jessica Alba, Quinta Brunson, and a few others as the speakers and attendees for the event. One of which is the NBA legend. This is indeed a huge honor for Dwyane Wade, which he shared on his Instagram story.

The invitation-only event kicks off on June 26 in Ojai, Calif., and will convene leading artists, thought leaders, and executives of color from the industries of entertainment, sports, media, brands, and technology. However, what’s surprising is Wade’s banana boat buddy was also a part of the summit two years back!?

10-time All-Star and Dwyane Wade’s banana boat buddy was roped in to talk about the ‘Juneteenth’

Retired NBA legend Carmelo Anthony was a part of the CAA’s 2021 summit. The 39-year-old spoke about the importance of ‘Juneteenth’ and why it should be a national holiday. In a motive to raise awareness, Anthony joined 96-year-old activist Opal Lee to discuss the ‘Juneteenth movement’.?

Moreover, in the same year, Anthony won the first-ever Kareem Abdul-Jabbar ‘Social Justice Award’ which shows why he was roped in by the CAA. However, this time, it is the Miami legend, Dwyane Wade. What are your thoughts on Wade’s recent achievement? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
