Dwyane Wade had an outstanding NBA career, achieving numerous milestones, including three NBA championships and being selected as a 13-time NBA All-Star.
The former NBA player’s daughter, Zaya, recently got a chance to throw her first pitch, which surprised the fans. However, instead of receiving praise, fans reacted negatively in the comments section of a post featuring a video of her pitch. Fans became more disrespectful towards her and started making some disgusting jokes about her.
One fan becomes more disrespectful towards Zaya, who was recently criticized by a former NFL player, and says, “F**k outta here nobody wanna see this fruit cake.”

Dwyane Wade Shares Heartfelt Reflections on Embracing Life with a Transgender Daughter
Despite receiving hate comments, Wade’s father is proud of his transgender daughter. Dwyane expressed his feelings about having a transgender daughter in the family during an appearance on the Today Show in 2021.
“I didn’t know anything, I really wasn’t knowledgeable about the LGBTQ+ community. What it has done is it opened my eyes and my ears to something greater and bigger than I, and my daughter has allowed us gracefully to be her support system. Wade said.
Dwyane Wade’s justification demonstrated his sincere support for his daughter and the LGBTQ community. Wade, though, is powerless to change the opinions of fans who have divergent views.
