The Miami Heat might want to go back to the drawing board with their Dwyane Wade statue.
On Sunday, the Mami Heat unveiled a statue of Dwyane Wade outside the Kaseya Center to honor the NBA Hall of Fame guard’s impact on the team and the city.
Immediately after the unveiling, fans were confused because the statue looked nothing like Wade.

Even Wade himself looked confused while speaking about the statue.
“Who is that guy?” a stunned Wade asked fans after the unveiling.
“That’s crazy, I can’t believe it.”
