Dwyane Wade is without hesitation, the biggest legend in Miami Heat history.
He made a lot of headlines with the Heat by winning championships in two different decades.
After his career finished in 2019, everyone knew it was only a matter of time before he was named a Hall of Famer.
Now, the former player-turned-analyst is set to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
This is a big honor for any player who dreamed of making it to the NBA.
According to Ira Winderman, the legendary shooting guard had a big reaction to this selection, sharing his happiness with the world.
Dwyane Wade on being elected to Hall, “I’m like a kid in a candy store right now.”

Even though he’s the Miami Heat’s best player ever, Wade played for three teams in the association, adding the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers to his resume.
Wade posted 22.0 points, 5.4 assists and 4.7 rebounds in 1,054 regular-season games in the NBA.
He had an honored career, collecting 13 All-Star Game selections, becoming a one-time NBA Finals MVP, as well as a three-time NBA champion.
This is the biggest honor for any NBA player, and Wade is well aware of that.
For a kid that grew up admiring Michael Jordan and other Chicago legends, this is a big dream.
The 2023 NBA Hall of Fame enshrinement will take place on Aug. 11-12 of this year.
Added to Wade, other legends like Pau Gasol, Dirk Nowitzki and Tony Parker were selected for the Hall of Fame as well.
This is a great homage to an incredible career.
