Statue goes viral after unveiling in Miami

Wade, a three-time NBA champion and 13-time NBA All-Star, was honored by the Miami Heat at a ceremony on Sunday after playing 14 seasons with the team.

“This is nothing I ever expected,” Wade told the crowd during the ceremony outside the Kaseya Center. “That’s not what I played for. That's not why I picked up the basketball. I picked up basketball to make a difference in my family’s life.”
