Watch: Dwyane Wade's son Zaire Wade spotted hooping with Trae Young & other NBA stars in pickup game

Several NBA stars were spotted hooping together along with Zaire Wade, the son of three-time Miami Heat champion Dwyane Wade, recently.

Their hoops session did not appear to be an official contest but was a star-studded pickup game. It featured the likes of three-time All-Star Trae Young and 2023 Defensive Player of the Year, Jaren Jackson Jr.

The pickup game took place at an unspecified time and date but it was captured on video. Afterwards, the footage was uploaded by '@TheDunkCentral' on X.

Here's a look at Dwyane Wade's eldest son hooping with several NBA stars.

Professional basketball players such as those in the NBA can often be seen getting together in the offseason. They usually train together as well as play pickup games to keep themselves sharp.

While Zaire Wade is not in the NBA, seeing him hoop with the league's stars should be exciting for his father's fans, even if it's just in a pickup game.

Where is Zaire Wade playing?

Zaire Wade is already 22 years old, which means he should already be eligible to be part of an NBA team. However, his basketball journey has taken him elsewhere for now.

Zaire was listed by 247 Sports as a three-star recruit coming out of high school. He received several offers from programs such as Toledo, South Carolina and Rhode Island among others, but he opted to skip college.

Instead, he chose to declare for the G-League draft in 2021. He was taken with the 10th pick by the Utah Jazz-affiliated team, the Salt Lake City Stars.

Wade played 12 games for the Stars before suffering a season-ending knee injury. In those 12 games, Zaire mostly came off the bench but did start once. He posted per-game averages of 1.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists while seeing an average of 18.6 minutes per game.

In the one game that he started in, he scored six points on a 2-for-7 shooting clip and dished six assists while also grabbing eight rebounds.

After he recovered from his knee injury, Wade resumed his basketball career outside of the United States.

He joined the Cape Town Tigers in the Basketball Africa League for the 2023 season. He played four games that season, averaging 9.3 points 3.8 rebounds and 4.3 assists.

Now, Wade is taking his talents to Asia as he reportedly signed with the Macau Black Bears.

As young as he is, Zaire Wade is already gaining plenty of experience overseas. These experiences will be valuable for him should he choose to come play in the NBA someday.
