It looks like Dwyane Wade is truly enjoying his retirement life. Since deciding to call it quits last season, the three-time NBA champion has more time to focus on one of his more favorite hobbies: Wine.
But he also has some spare minutes to make fun of his former NBA teammates. He posted a video on his Instagram story featuring a bottle of wine inside, of all things, an outdoor grill. Apparently, it's Channing Frye's new brand called Chosen Family.
The Flash said he keeps it there because every time he plays against him, it's always barbecue chicken or slang for easy cooking.
It was all in good fun though, as Wade also congratulated Frye for his new wine and said he can't wait to taste it. They played together in Wade's pitstop with the Cleveland Cavaliers during the 2017-18 season.
The 38-year-old guard is widely known around the NBA as a big wine connoisseur. He also has his own line called Wade Cellars, which started in 2018. It is located in Napa Valley, California where he first started his love for wine after frequent visits with LeBron James and Chris Bosh during their Miami Heat days.
What started as a pastime became a full-blown business. Now, the 13-time All-Star has expanded Wade Cellars, offering more labels, with LBJ bringing some of them in the NBA bubble.
Wine has increasingly become a trendy interest in NBA circles, with San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich being a proud oenophile, and other superstars like Carmelo Anthony, Jimmy Butler and Kevin Love also getting into more high-end wine drinking and wine pairing.
Hey, maybe barbecue chicken does go well with Frye's new wine.
