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.

What did Dwyane Wade wear for the WNBA All-Star 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.

Dwyane Wade has been a big supporter of women’s basketball. The recent acquisition of his hometown’s WNBA franchise has instilled hope among fans of the team. It’s speculated that Wade might bring a solution to plunge the gap regarding the team’s need for a practice facility.

But as soon as the photos of his fit surfaced online, all that became secondary. Immediately, fans started calling out the 41-year-old. Few fans even expressed their disappointment at his stylist!

Fans weren’t impressed with Wade’s fashion

It’s safe to say that fans were disappointed with Wade’s attire last night. One fan stated that “His outfit ugly asf.”

He clearly wasn’t a fan of The Flash‘s fit. And he wasn’t the only one.

Another fan wrote how he was wearing clothes as if on vacation. “Dwayne wearing gabby clothes again. June is over bro,” he commented.

One user even stated how Wade might be taking fashion advice from Heat guard Tyler Herro.

Another fan hilariously dragged in SpongeBob SquarePants as well.

After 16 seasons in the NBA and notable endorsement deals, the 3x NBA champion has amassed a net worth of $175 million. Are you excited to witness how Wade’s contribution could influence the WNBA? Did Wade’s outfit impress you? Let us know in the comments.
