The wife of Dwyane Wade had a pretty funny way of welcoming the newest member of the Heat to Miami

Thursday night in the 2015 NBA Draft, the Miami Heat basically stole Justise Winslow. Considered one of the most talented players in this draft, Winslow somehow slipped all the way to the No. 10 pick, so Pat Riley scooped him right up and ran away with him.

Now, Winslow will play with one of this generation’s best players in Dwyane Wade, who shares something with Winslow other than just being one hell of a ball player. Both of these men have quite the unorthodox way of spelling their first name.

Well, Wade’s wife, Gabrielle Union, used this fact to welcome her husband’s new teammate to Miami.


In reality, the best part of this tweet, though, isn’t the spelling joke that Union made. No, if you notice, instead of using “deals” in the present tense, she chooses to use the word “dealt” in the past tense. As we know, rumors have been rampant as of late that Wade may choose to play elsewhere next year. With this being the case, Heat fans started freaking out, picking up on this immediately.

This caused Union to have to clarify herself.

Hmm…was that a clarification or did she really send a hidden message without even realizing it?
