Obviously they are NBA superstars making millions and millions but taking paycuts like that isn’t an easy thing to do. If Wade prioritized his own money UD wouldn’t be the Heat legend that he is now.

DWade x UD is the reason heat culture is more than a meme

Wade was never the highest paid player in a heat uniform, at any point in his career. He just worked hard and aimed to win no matter what. Wade was heat culture before there was a name for it.

Wade should have took the reigns from Pat

He’s definitely getting it back now that he’s retired as a 3x champion

UD is a millionaire, but not like these other dudes. But we know he puts money into the community, unlike these other dudes. It’s not a slight. It’s just that we know the dude who needs the money is giving money to people who need money. There’s no more just cause than that.

I’ve heard this story before and this why I look at some of these contracts funny man. Who is willing to take that cut to form a team when it’s time to resign or extend.
That Wade leadership different.

It’s easy to look at athletes and think their concerns about money are trivial because they’re millionaires, but it’s worth remembering the average career length of a pro athlete regardless of the sport is maybe a few years, only the absolute best make a shit ton of it, and back then a max contract was less yearly than what Duncan Robinson makes right now.

Dwyane is a real man. Yet social media continues to push this narrative that he’s a piece of shit over a dunk contest lol
