NBA legend Dwyane Wade has been quite active on social media since his retirement from the league. Especially when talking about his kids Zaire and Saya Wade. Recently, the 3x NBA champion spoke about the criticism his son Zaire had to face being the son of an NBA legend. However, that soon became ancient news after a clip of the Miami Heat icon giving his son a hard time on the court resurfaced.

The Miami Heat legend has never held back when coming to his daughter’s aid and has often expressed how proud he is of her. But for a change, fans got to see The Flash schooling his son on the hardwood floor in a video from 2020.

Wade played 16 seasons in the league, out of which he was an All-Star for 13 seasons. So, The Flash has no shortage of basketball knowledge and IQ which he will be imparting to his son. But in the video uploaded by SportsCenter, it seemed as if Wade was schooling his son before showing him the ropes.

The remainder of the videos uploaded were Wade and his son going head to head. In the second video, Wade hit his son with a mid-range fadeaway jumper and said, “I’m a shot maker dawg. I make shots.” This wasn’t the end of it though.

As the game went on, Zaire quickly came back with a tough layup that he drained over Wade’s extended hand. But that only made Wade lock in. Despite Zaire’s intense defense, Wade recovered and laid the ball in with a finger roll. In the final video, the former 6’3 shooting guard backed down his son to shoot a close-range fadeaway from the post. After the game was over, Zaire could be heard complaining about how Wade won the game off post-ups.
