Miami Heat: The 15 Greatest Dwyane Wade moments of all time
8. Zaire wade “from Robbins, Illinois” remake
While this isn’t about one thing in particular that he did on the court, it is about everything he ever did. When Dwyane Wade was with Converse on an endorsement deal, one of the more famous commercials from the pairing was his “from Robbins, Illinois” black and white ad. Well, in tribute to his father, Zaire Wade recreated the iconic commercial.
This was apart of Wade’s One Last Dance tour, taking place at one of his final Miami Heat home games. As mentioned, it wasn’t specifically about one or another of his on-court exploits, but about all of his on and off-court ventures and accomplishments.
One of his greatest accomplishments in his child, recreating another one of his greatest accomplishments in being good and respected enough to earn that endorsement, ad, and enough respect for it to become iconic, talking about all of his other accomplishments. That is why this is one of the 15 greatest D-Wade moments.
9. Circus shot 2006 ECF against Pistons
Dwyane Wade has made a career out of hitting tough shots. Look no further than earlier on in this list with the buzzer-beater against Golden State to win the game or the shot from his first-ever playoffs against the Hornets.
This one falls into that category. What makes it so special though is that it was against a very tough defensive team and it was en route to what would be his first title and the first title in Miami Heat franchise history. Those factors alone, make this one of the greatest moments in Dwyane Wade’s career.
