If you’re a true Dwyane Wade fan, you definitely remember his final home game against the Philadelphia 76ers in 2019. Now, he’s a Hall of Famer, and along his journey, we’ve witnessed countless iconic moments. But here’s a throwback, do you remember The D-Wade Sidekick? Yeah, that one. The limited-edition T-Mobile Sidekick 3, designed by Wade himself. Man! it was a must-have back in the day. You might have forgotten about it… but Chrissy Teigen sure didn’t.

Dwyane Wade is holding it down on Today with Jenna & Friends, bringing in guests who always keep things interesting. This time, it’s Chrissy Teigen, stopping by to talk about her podcast “Self-Conscious”. But Wade and Teigen? Oh, they go way back. Remember Wade’s last game with the Heat? That wild moment when he fell backward after a missed shot right into the laps of John Legend and Chrissy Teigen? Yeah, they didn’t mind. They were fans, and friends, and now, Teigen is throwing it way back, reminiscing about her own D-Wade Sidekick.

On Today with Jenna & Friends, Chrissy Teigen couldn’t hide her excitement when the topic of Dwyane merch came up. “Yes! Oh my gosh! My Sidekick. The D-Wade Sidekick. Oh! My gosh,” she gushed. You could tell this wasn’t just another piece of tech for her, it was a memory, a vibe. She went on, reminiscing about the phone’s basketball-textured leather back, how it got so dirty but still felt so cool.

“I remember going to Les Delux (a club in L.A), I would be like outside with my sidekick” she laughed, reliving the moment. Wade? He was all in, grinning as he said, “I thought I was the coolest person in the world.” And honestly? Back then, with his own face on a Sidekick, he kinda was.

Chrissy Teigen actually misses the D-Wade Sidekick. “If they bought it back, I would use it in a heartbeat. I would totally get a sidekick too. I totally use it in a heartbeat.” she said with pure nostalgia. That’s the thing about iconic gadgets they’re more of a time capsule. D-Wade sidekicks were the ultimate flex back in the day. Maybe it’s time for a comeback, don’t you think?
