Is there anything that Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade can’t do? Not only is he one of the stars of the latest Basketball Hall of Fame class, but he is also the newest owner of an $85 million franchise. Wade’s passion for basketball and love for his hometown have culminated in part-ownership of the Chicago Sky team. Adding to the string of updates, Dwyane and his wife Gabrielle Union graced the 2023 WNBA All-Star game in Vegas. Despite the entertaining evening, some fans are throwing shade at the Heat legend for a certain choice last night.
While Sabrina Ionescu stole the night by breaking Stephen Curry‘s three-point record, D-Wade’s clothes stole the internet. His recent outfit did not thrill the fans. After all, the 2006 Finals MVP is known for his singular fashion sense, whether it’s for a Gala night or a game.

The presence of the future Hall of Famer and his wife at the WNBA All-Star game immediately gained everyone’s attention. However, they weren’t the only stars present in the arena. Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, Zach LaVine, Tracy McGrady, and many others from the NBA community showed up to support the best women’s basketball players on the planet.
Team Breanna Stewart comfortably beat Tea A’ja Wilson 143-127 last night to take revenge for the pummeling they received last year. Notably, New York Liberty’s Ionescu scored 25-out-of-27 shots during the three-point contest to tally a record-shattering 37 points!
Despite the showing, Wade and Union also grabbed a lot of headlines. And understandably so. While numerous fans were thrilled about him joining the list of Chicago Sky team’s ownership, some were taken aback by his attire.
