If Miami Heat legend had the chance to dunk over any current NBA player, he'd easily know who to pick. Wade participated in an AMA (Ask Me Anything) via Bleacher Report and when asked on who he would choose to dunk on, he answered his former teammate LeBron James.
“Hahaha. That is the easiest one for me. That would be LeBron Jame. Because we're friends,” Wade said during the 20-minute AMA. “I want to have that notch in my belt. If I did it in my last year I would probably get a tech for talking so much. I would love to dunk on him.”
Picked first and fifth overall respectively in the now-famous 2003 NBA draft, both Wade and James would quickly become stars in the league. During the 2010 offseason, James, along with fellow All-Star Chris Bosh would take their talents to South Beach and join Wade on the Miami Heat.
The big three of Dwyane Wade, Bosh and James would win Miami two championships and become one of the most dominant teams in recent memory.
James and Wade's friendship has been well-known for years and existed way before they teamed up in Miami.
As for Wade himself, the 6-foot-4 shooting guard enjoyed a Hall of Fame-caliber career playing 15 seasons with Miami, one with the Cleveland Cavaliers and one with the Chicago Bulls.
For his career, Wade averaged 22.0 points, 5.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game. The 38-year-old also made 13 All-Star teams, eight All-NBA teams and three All-Defensive teams during his storied career.
