Dwyane Wade's reaction to the strange-looking Heat statue led to endless jokes from NBA fans

Dwyane Wade had a day to remember on Sunday as the Miami Heat unveiled a new statue of his likeness outside the Kaseya Center to celebrate his legendary status within the franchise.

However, the statue is also pretty memorable – and not for good reason.

Like many other statues of modern athletes erected in recent years, she didn't really look like Wade. The statue was sculpted to recreate Wade's iconic stance after a game-winning buzzer-beating shot in 2009. While the pose was maintained, the face looked nothing like Wade.

The NBA released a video of Wade's reaction when he saw the statue for the first time.

Now, chances are Wade's reaction was more about enjoying the special moment alongside his family than criticizing the artwork. But that didn't stop NBA fans from theorizing what was going on in his head during the ceremony.

Wade spent 15 seasons with the Heat, bringing three championships to South Beach in 2006, '12 and '13. He leads the franchise in virtually every notable category, from points scored (21,556) to assists (5,310) to steals (1,492).

And now he has a statue to show for it. Even if it doesn't look like him at all.
