Dwyane Wade wants to continue to gravitate around basketball courts. The Chicago Sun-Times today reports that the former Heat legend made an appearance during Chicago Sky practice. A visit that is anything but trivial because the Chicago native would like to invest in the WNBA franchise.

It was a nice day “, described the former NBA fullback who, wearing a sweatshirt bearing the image of the team, spent the afternoon chatting with Michael Alter, the owner of the Sky, and Ann Crosby, the vice- club president.

The retiree also spoke among the players. ” We need people like him. We need more NBA players to help grow the WNBA. He talked a lot about that. It was very encouraging “, appreciated the leader Dana Evans, whose coach is … the cousin of the future Hall of Famer, James Wade, also GM of the club.

“(His investment) would mean a lot, of course, especially when it comes to the type of person he is and the way he does things for other people. He is recognized and has a reputation for supporting not only this league, but also everyone. So it would be special if something like this happened “, greets James Wade whose franchise announced last week the sale of 10% of its capital for 8.5 million dollars to a group of new exclusively female investors.

His cousin, who also played for the Bulls in the 2016/17 season, already has a good track record in sports investments, with stakes in the Utah Jazz and Real Salt Lake in MLS.

Seeing D-Wade at the Sky adds an extra touch. There will be more people, more fans. We just want our name to be known to all “Wishes Dana Evans to finish.
