Dwyane Wade, former NBA superstar, recently made an NBA fan’s day, albeit 15 years late. A Reddit user, who is an NBA fan, claimed they received a direct message (DM) from Wade on Facebook 15 years ago but only happened to see the message recently.
The fan missed the opportunity to interact directly with Wade when the message was sent, but the note from the basketball legend remained a kind gesture. Wade’s heartfelt message had nothing but kind words for the fan.
In the message, Wade expressed his gratitude and thanked the fan for supporting him. The NBA star allegedly wrote, “70% Win (110-25-1)”. This gesture by Wade highlights the impact that fans have on professional athletes’ lives and careers.
Although the late discovery of Wade’s message might have disappointed the fan, it will surely remain a memorable moment for them. The impact of a simple message of gratitude from a sports icon offers fans a sense of connection and motivation to continue supporting their favorite athletes.
