The Miami Heat will unveil a bronze statue of franchise legend Dwyane Wade outside the Kaseya Center later this year, the team announced Sunday night.

Miami held a ceremony to commemorate Wade's enshrinement in the Basketball Hall of Fame last year during halftime of the Heat's 104-87 win over the Charlotte Hornets. During the ceremony, team president Pat Riley announced the news.

"When we retired his jersey in February 2020, I said Dwyane was the face of this franchise forever and I meant it," Riley said in a statement.
