Like everyone, Dwyane Wade celebrated what he calls his favorite time of the year. Yep, the Wades enjoyed Thanksgiving with their usual fervor among family and friends. While a series of snaps and videos on IG showed the blast everyone had, a particular video disclosed a heartfelt prayer that Kaavia had on the occasion.

“Thank you for the night and quite a blessing of your life for us, including love and care…” the 6-year-old said, melting everyone’s hearts at the dinner. Further in the video, Gabrielle had a message that she delivered on Kaavia’s behalf.

“Kavia would also like to say that she hopes that everyone supports each other and that we all continue to show up for each other. And that on this day, we need to be reminded of the world’s challenges and the world’s problems to maybe put some of ours in perspective,” Gab said. Building on the same, Kaavia further thanked everyone for coming and supporting each other, drawing a loud, “Amen“.

Some other snaps and videos from the IG post in the discussion included–Gabrielle Union dancing it out to Dwyane Wade’s singing, Kaavia making the full use of Karaoke setup, and D-Wade creating a mirroring image of two dads: he with his 6-year-old-daughter and Chad Easterling with his son. For those unaware, Easterling is Michael Jordan’s business partner from Obsidianworks.

If you have been following Dwayne Wade’s social media updates, it’s a possibility that you already got a hint at what was about to come in this celebration. Even Kaavia had already disclosed her plans in a video chat with her father.

“I am excited to see all my family and my cousins and my friends. And I’m also excited for all the food we’re getting and also to support everyone…. I am going to be saying the prayer,” Kaavia said. And prayer she said, with all the adorableness in the world. The other snaps and videos have made one thing clear: the Wades know how to celebrate. The Flash, for one, did not even care about his existing injury.

The Thanksgiving celebration for Dwayne Wade came with a cost

Ever tried to ignore an injury because you didn’t want to miss out on the fun? That’s exactly what Dwyane Wade did this Thanksgiving, and it’s so relatable! On Instagram Stories, the former Miami Heat star gave fans a peek into his festive evening, complete with a spirited dance that screamed holiday vibes.

But here’s the catch—he admitted he’d rolled his ankle in the gym the day before. Did that stop him? Nope. “Today I’m paying for it,” he confessed. His situation, however, is understandable, as Thanksgiving is more than just a holiday for the Miami Heat icon.

Every year, Dwyane Wade hosts grand gatherings filled with laughter, food, and family. But this year, his determination to keep the party going might have pushed his ankle a little too far. But watching his daughter having the same excitement for the festival that he absolutely loves must’ve been some relief.
