This isn’t too big of a surprise, even considering the rumors. Wade released a statement in support of James when he decided to leave the Miami Heat, which didn’t exactly hint at a fractured relationship. Wade also posted a picture from his wedding that featured James, Chris Paul and comedian Kevin Hart on his Instagram on Wednesday with the following caption:
"This picture was taken on our wedding day an hour b4 I took that walkout to become as one with my beautiful bride@gabunion. A real brotherhood goes deeper then money,rumors,sports,fame and so on. So thanks to my brothers @kevinhart4real @kingjames @cp3 and@ud40 @chrisbosh (who is not pictured here in this photo) for coming to share this moment with me."
Wade and James made it to the NBA Finals in each of their four seasons as teammates and won two titles.
