NBA legend Dwyane Wade is reportedly actively involved in conversations with players in Orlando as the league decides if it wants to continue the 2020 playoffs or not following the Jacob Blake shooting, per Taylor Rooks of Bleacher Report.

Wade is well-respected in the NBA since he's an icon and one of the best players in league history. He's also got close relationships with three main players in the bubble in LeBron James, Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony.

The Milwaukee Bucks boycotted Game 5 against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. The other games were boycotted as well and it appeared the 2020 playoffs were going to be canceled.

However, some players have thought about things following the heated meeting on Wednesday and now there's momentum toward the playoffs continuing on the weekend.

Dwyane Wade is currently doing TV work for TNT. It makes sense that the league is getting Wade's help since this is a big decision.
