NBA legend Dwyane Wade has urged incoming rookies to surround themselves with someone who understands finances to ensure they create generational wealth.
Wade was selected fifth overall in the 2003 NBA Draft by the Miami Heat. He was selected after the likes of LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh as the class from 20 years ago stands as one of the deepest and most talented in league history.
Wade spent the majority of his 16-year career with the Heat, winning three championships in 2006, 2012, and 2013. He left the franchise in 2016, bouncing around the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers before he returned to Miami for a final swan song ahead of his 2019 retirement.
