This weekend, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame will induct its class of 2023. That class includes former Los Angeles Lakers star Pau Gasol, Dirk Nowitzki, Tony Parker and Dwyane Wade.
In 16 NBA seasons, Wade put together a very impressive resume, and he’s generally considered the third-best shooting guard in league history. He won three world championships; two of them as a teammate of LeBron James.
Those championships bonded Wade and James as brothers for life. With Wade about to be immortalized in the Hall of Fame, James took to social media to congratulate him and show him some love.

Their partnership may have been relatively short, but they established themselves as one of the best superstar duos in basketball history.
