CP3’s Future, Shedeur Rising, and Miami Heat Dreams
Description
In this episode of The Checkin, Dwyane Wade and Bob dive into accountability, leadership, and the standards it takes to win — both in the NBA and in everyday life. Wade breaks down his frustration with the Miami Heat after a tough loss, emphasizing defensive effort, culture, and why holding teammates accountable isn’t always comfortable. That leads into a conversation about Chris Paul as a true “accountability locker room guy,” and how organizations sometimes fail legends by not handling transitions the right way.
Beyond basketball, Wade talks about launching On the Fly with Dwyane Wade: Life in Motion, sharing why owning his narrative matters and how the series shows his life behind the scenes. He opens up about fatherhood, being more present with Kaavia, and his desire to build a real community for dads. The episode also touches on relationship effort, the importance of the small things, the Chicago Bears finally building a foundation, praise for Shedeur Sanders’ leadership, and a few light moments about Wade’s dog, Trey, plus his work in art and his golf lifestyle brand, Ace.
