In a brief YouTube Shorts clip, NBA player Draymond Green and a co‑host discuss the recent unveiling of a statue honoring former Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade. Green congratulates Wade on both his jersey retirement and the statue, noting the honor is on a "different level." The conversation turns humorous as they joke about the statue’s likeness—initially resembling Wade but later looking like another player, Tim Thomas—and speculate that Wade may have delegated the pose to a stand‑in because of his busy schedule. Throughout, the speakers repeatedly shout out to Wade, expressing admiration and camaraderie while maintaining a light‑hearted, informal tone.

Congratulations to D-Wade on the statue, man. I think— Man, congratulations to Flash. To get your jersey retired is one thing. Yeah. That's incredible. To get a statue. That's on a whole nother level. That's a totally different level. You're not going nowhere.
Nah. Probably emotional day. All the people out there, shout out to the Miami Heat organization.
But I must ask, what was your first thoughts when you saw the statue? D-Wade said, "Who is that guy?" What?
Man, why did they give D-Wade a team Moo statue.
But the mockup of his face before the turnout, it looked like D-Wade. Afterwards, it looked like Tim Thomas.
I think they were like, yo, D-Wade, we need you to pose for this statue. And you know how busy he is, and this shit was taking all day. He was like, man, I'm tired of this shit. Hey cousin, stand in for me. Dwyane Wade.
Damn, man. Shout out to D-Wade, man.
We love you, bro.
D-Wade, these are jokes, man. We love you, dog.
