3 Dimensional
A long-awaited photographic memoir from Miami Heat basketball sensation Dwyane Wade, featuring over 100 brand-new pictures from Wade's life on and off the court.
Dwyane Wade has amazed basketball fans with his on-court creativity for more than 15 years and has created his personal brand into one of the most powerful in sports. Wade takes readers inside his intriguing life and work in this magnificent 4-color book, which includes more than 100 never-before-seen images from Bob Metelus, who has been documenting Wade's career for more than a decade.
Wade's difficult upbringing on Chicago's South Side, his college career at Marquette, where he went from unheralded recruit to one of college basketball's greatest stars, and his extraordinary years with the Miami Heat, with whom he won three NBA championships and was named an All-Star 13 times, are all depicted in three dimensions. The book focuses on Wade's core values, which have guided him throughout his career: being a great teammate and leader. While skill may make you a celebrity, Wade explains that being a champion requires sacrifice: putting the team's aims ahead of your own ego. Wade has lived this philosophy throughout his career, from his days with Shaq (with whom he won his first title), through the "Big 3" with LeBron and Bosh, to his final season as a player, when he coached the Heat's bright but youthful lineup. These same ideals have impacted his personal life as well, allowing him to be a supportive husband and partner to Gabrielle Union, as well as an exceptional role model for his children.
3 Dimensional is a fascinating look into the mind and heart of one of basketball's most charismatic players. It is the definitive inside look at the life and career of one of the sport's biggest players, and it coincides with a documentary chronicling Wade's last NBA season.
