"This is Probably Real": 3 Years After Pranking a Fan, Dwyane Wade Breaks Silence on Viral FB Message He Allegedly Sent a Random Man 14 Years Ago

Dwyane Wade has recently addressed an incident dating back 14 years that has resurfaced on social media. The incident in question revolves around an alleged message sent by Wade to a fan on Facebook in 2009. This resurfaced message is now making rounds on various social media platforms.

Wade’s response to this incident from the past comes just 3 years after he pranked a fan with Cousin Sal, in an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! This just goes to show that Wade has a regular habit of interacting with fans, whether it’s face-to-face or on social media.

Dwyane Wade himself recently addressed this revelation with a comment that neither confirmed nor denied the authenticity, stating: 

“I can’t confirm nor deny this but it’s giving me… This is probably real.” 

Wade’s acknowledgment of the incident has set the internet abuzz with speculation and intrigue.

Not the first time Wade has interacted with fans

This recent revelation isn’t the first time Dwyane Wade has engaged with fans in a candid and direct manner. 

Earlier, he went at a fan on Twitter who didn’t know that Michael Jordan was Dwyane Wade’s childhood icon. The fan, somewhat innocently, asked Dwyane Wade who his favorite player was. Perhaps the fan remained in the unknown over Wade’s place of birth, or his favorite NBA team, but for any fans of the “Flash,” the answer was quite simple. 

Going at the fan, Wade wrote: 

“Twitter should suspend your account for this.” 

Despite being one of the greatest ever to step on an NBA court, Wade remains a laid-back star on social media. His playfulness and will to interact with his fans have made him a crowd favorite. Therefore, while many NBA stars fade away after their playing careers, Wade has only become more and more impactful in the NBA universe on social media.
