Tuesday evening's matchup against the playoff-bound Philadelphia 76ers marks the final time that Miami Heat shooting guard Dwyane Wade takes the floor in South Beach. As a result, all eyes have remained on Wade throughout the week as the perennial NBA All-Star gears up to officially call it a career at the conclusion of this season.

Adding to the special evening in Miami, Wade received quite the nice surprise as his son, Zaire, introduced him to the Heat faithful before what is more than likely his final go-round in front of the hometown fans.

Not only that, but the younger Wade also shared a heartwarming message for his father ahead of the Tuesday evening showdown between the Heat and 76ers.

While the up-and-coming Wade doesn't appear to be too far away from the NBA ranks himself, it is certainly evident that he thinks quite highly of his father.

While spending a bit of time split between the Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers, the 37-year-old Dwyane Wade spent the majority of his NBA playing career as a member of the Heat. During his time in Miami, Wade helped bring a trio of NBA titles to the franchise and the city in 2006, 2012 and 2013.
