Dwyane Wade made his return to Kaseya Center, but as a fan to watch long-time friend Udonis Haslem finish the final chapter of his NBA career. But what about some other stars?

Since becoming official, Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan have spent almost all their time together. To mark their Easter, the couple took a cozy yacht trip out in the middle of the ocean. The Real Housewives of Miami star shared an Instagram story of the moment as Michael Jordan’s son showed off his dance moves.

On the other hand, Dwyane Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union had an important event on their calendars. It was more than just Easter in Vice City. After two decades of loving and giving it his all, Udonis Haslem played his last regular season game in Miami Heat colors. As a close friend and former teammate, Wade was in the stands roaring to each of Haslem’s buckets in his 24-point farewell game. He proposed April 9 should be a holiday in Miami to celebrate the legend.
