Dwyane Wade’s Miami statue has the internet in tears
Dwyane Wade is the latest athlete to suffer the slings and arrows of the internet’s jokes after having the bad fortune of a bewilderingly unrecognizable statue.
In the annals of the internet, typically speaking, you see the word “unrecognizable” to describe a celeb whose weight fluctuated or hair changed. But in this case, I’d wager it’d be hard to decipher if this statue was intended to be Wade, were it not for the Miami Heat jersey. It was unveiled Sunday in front of Miami’s Kaseya Center, honoring a moment in which the retired NBA legend shouted “this is my house” after a big shot.
I mean…come on. At least, to my eye, that does not look like Wade. It’s perhaps not as bad as that infamous Cristiano Ronaldo debacle from 2017, but it’s reminiscent. There is a long history of these sorts of bad statues, but the Wade one really isn’t great. Sports pundit and Ringer founder Bill Simmons said it’s the worst he’s ever seen.

The internet, naturally, responded with jokes.
Wade himself said he loves the statue, so perhaps that’s all that matters.
