From having a successful basketball career—he won three NBA championships and was a 13-time NBA All-Star—to being the definition of relationship goals with his longtime wife, Gabrielle Union, the retired athlete continues to leave his fans in awe. Plus, it's also worth noting that his Instagram page is full of sweet family moments and fashion statements.

Now, Dwyane is adding a new accomplishment to his ever-growing list: author.

An Open Book

Dwyane Wade is ready to share his story. In an Instagram video announcing his memoir, he teased, "Every once in a while we hear stories that give us all hope. It’s when someone does something so incredible that no one saw coming or no one knew you were capable of. It’s the story of the underdog. It was our time, my time."

Love & Basketball

In an expert from his book, the retired athlete explained, "My career wasn't always easy, but I had long since learned nothing in life was. I'm thankful for what the game of basketball brought to my life, my family's life, and how it allowed me to be connected to so many people's lives along the way."

Father-Daughter Duo

The Cube host and his mini-me! Before retiring from the NBA, Dwyane brought Kaavia James, now 3, whom he shares with wife Gabrielle Union, to his last home game. The two adorably twinned in red outfits for the special occasion.

Wedding Bells

Grab the tissues! While reflecting on his August 2014 wedding to the Deliver Us From Eva actress, Dwyane gushed in his memoir, "When I tell you, though, that Gab looked like an angel walking down the aisle, I put that on everything. I can be 120 years old, and I'll remember that moment like it happened five minutes ago. That's why I'm wiping my eye."

Dad Duties

The NBA champion and Gabrielle are photographed helping his nephew, Dahveon Morris, now 20, who he adopted in 2011, get ready for prom.

All-Star Style

Go bold or go home! For the 39-year-old star, he's all about making a style statement. As he put it in his book, "When it comes to fashion, I'm not afraid to take chances."
