Dwyane Wade surprises students at Western High graduation

Dwyane Wade made a surprise appearance at the graduation ceremony for Western High School. Wade’s appearance was the culmination of some persistent work through social media by graduating senior Negeen Fallahzadeh.

For months, Fallahzadeh asked Wade to attend the ceremony. Wade hugged Fallahzadeh on stage and then took a selfie, which was posted on Instagram. The ceremony took place at Nova Southeastern University.

Wade will join NBA Countdown as an analyst for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday.
