Dwayne Wade’s daughter, Zaya Wade, is ruffling some feathers again with her choice of clothing. Former NBA player Kwame Brown isn’t pleased with how she decided to honor Kobe and Gianna Bryant.
On Wednesday, Zaya paid tribute to the late NBA player. In the Instagram photo, Zaya is wearing a #8 Lakers jersey dress with the caption “always remembering and honoring Kobe and Gianna.”
While many people appeared to have no problem with the outfit of choice, Kwame Brown felt differently. On Thursday, during his Youtube show, Kwame called out Dwayne and says “he doesn’t level up to a man.”
Brown continues by saying Kobe represented work ethic, faith, and masculinity, which is something he believes Zaya did a disservice to with her tribute.
“You are letting your woman control your house,” Kwame says. I’m not saying there’s anything against homosexuals, but [Kobe] is a heterosexual man. Why is he being honored by making his jersey into a dress? Wear his goddamn jersey for the day to honor him without the dress part. Let’s please not show our black brother in this light. This is no offense to nobody else. This man was a heterosexual man with a wife and a family. There’s no reason for this to be tied to Kobe Bryant. None whatsoever.”
Nevertheless, Dwayne remained unbothered by Kwame’s rant. The ex-Miami Heat player commented that he was a proud “girl dad” underneath her photo.
