After 15 seasons of breaking ankles, blowing by defenders, and getting fans to jump out of their seats, Donovan Mitchell figured Dwyane Wade could use a rest. So on Tuesday night, the young Utah Jazz gave the future Hall of Famer a rocking chair as a retirement gift.
“It was kind of our way of saying welcome to the new life outside of the NBA,” the 22-year-old Mitchell said.
At a private #OneLastDance dinner on Tuesday night in Utah, Donovan Mitchell gifted Dwyane Wade with a rocking chair.
Both men, more than players, are standup individuals and excellent role models.
