UPDATED, Sept. 24, 2019, 11:30 a.m.: After retiring from professional basketball, Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade put his waterfront Miami Beach home on the market for $33 million last week.
The six-bedroom, 13,800-square-foot mansion at 5980 North Bay Road includes a wine room – likely with some bottles from his winery, D Wade Cellars — a game room, outdoor basketball court and a home theater.
Wade isn’t the only basketball player with an impressive pad in South Florida. Wade’s current and former teammates have also made a splash in real estate, buying luxury homes in Pinecrest, Coconut Grove and Miami Beach.
Below is a list of where current and former Miami Heat players bought or sold homes in South Florida.
