Dwyane Wade Gets Surprised by People Whose Lives He's Changed in Emotional Advertisement

“You’re not Wade the basketball player — the legend,” Andrea Oliver, Joaquin’s sister, tells Wade. “You’re the human being that took the time and wrote my brother’s name on his shoe,” she continues, before giving him the jersey Joaquin wore in his last championship.

Others gift Wade a jacket worn to a first interview; a graduation cap and gown; and a custom shirt.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade trade jerseys after final game playing against each other.

One of the biggest surprises is the appearance of Wade’s mother, Jolinda, who spent time in prison and later became a pastor. Just a few years ago, Wade bought her a church.

“I am more proud of the man you have become than the basketball player,” Jolinda says. “You are bigger than basketball.”

During his final home game in Miami, Wade’s son, Zaire, introduced him before the matchup.

The video was a nod to an old-school Conversecommercial from 2007.

On Wednesday, Wade will play the final game of his career, as they are no longer in contention for the playoffs.
