Dwyane Wade put former teammate Jimmy Butler in check after a comment about wife Gabrielle Union's recent Instagram post.
Butler posted an IG post Friday about his soccer aspirations after his close following of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, showing various clips of his impressive and not-so-impressive skills with a soccer ball.

Wade quickly took the opportunity to give Butler a good but friendly warning of hitting up his wife's comment section.

Wade and Butler spent one season together as members of the Chicago Bulls, before the core of that team disintegrated rather quickly, as Wade along with Rajon Rondo found another team after Butler was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The two All-Stars have remained close despite playing for different teams, hence why Butler gets the pass on his latest gaffe and will be most likely welcomed into Wade's barbecue.
