To wear a gray tweed suit, you have to be mature and confident in yourself. Some people can't pull it off.
A Tom Ford three-piece makes you feel so confident, it's bananas.
I love to sing some Beyonce - ya know, like 'All the Single Ladies.' I'll sing that - maybe not with the body shakin' - but I'll have a little bit of the hand movement going on.
For home games, I bring my clothes to the arena. I bring two different outfits that I can pick after the game. Road game, I got to wear what I walk in with.
Most days I am in public. If I go to the store, with social media, I'm in public. It might as well be a press conference.
I'm just showing my personality in my clothing.
Wherever you go, things change you. I mean, obviously moving to Miami and becoming part of the NBA has given me a different perspective on style than I had when I lived in Chicago or Milwaukee.
I think the biggest thing I've learned is to not really worry what people will say or think about what you wear. You have to wear what feels good on you, what you feel comfortable in. And I've just learned to not really care.
Being a father is an everyday challenge. It goes on and on.

I have two definitions of success - one on the basketball court and one in my personal life. In basketball, success means making my teammates better, winning basketball games and winning championships. In my personal life, success means being a good father to my sons and raising them to be strong men; taking care of my family and being a good friend; and using my influence to make a difference in the community.Collection: Basketball
I think everything happens as it's supposed to. I don't want to force anything. I want it to be so authentic that it's seamless.Collection: Thinking
We live in the moment. We're not thinking about the future right now. We're not thinking about the past, you know. We're living in this moment right here and it's a sweet moment to live in.Collection: Sweet
Places you go in life - it opens your eyes up and you kind of understand who you are.Collection: Eye

An athlete needs to read situations before they happen.Collection: Athlete
When people see you on the screen, you become bigger than life.Collection: People
Fashion is more than just how many colors and patterns you can put on at once. Being a great dresser is not necessarily about the colors you put on. It's about putting things together in the right way and then trying different things.Collection: Fashion
I've always cared about my personal style and the way people perceive me. I know a lot of times people don't get the opportunity to talk to me, so they're just going to see what I wear, see how I'm dressed, see how I present myself.Collection: Opportunity
Fatherhood, to me, isn't something you do for awards or acclaim. It's a privilege and a huge responsibilityCollection: Responsibility
If someone wears something you like, you make comments on it. And if someone wears something we don't like, we make comments on it, too. That's just what guys do, what teammates do. Besides that, we don't really compete in that space.Collection: Space
I'm always telling my kids to be themselves and let their personalities show in other ways than with their mouths.Collection: Kids
With the way I dress, I think my personality shows, so I don't always have to talk. Someone can see what I'm wearing, see what socks I'm wearing, and see what my vibe is, what kind of person I am.Collection: Thinking
I took it upon myself to be more aggressive. I wanted the ball. Coach gave me the ball and I just tried to attack (and) make plays, just take it to the rim and see what happens.Collection: Play
I got a rhythm going. The guys just did a good job of putting the ball in my hands.Collection: Jobs
From the start to the end it was ugly and a painful game to watch.Collection: Games
We go through life so fast and we never really get to enjoy moments. It seems like they go past us...Tonight I just wanted to take a minute, a moment and soak it in and be a kid from Robbins Illinois and be a kid from Marquette University.Collection: Kids
One night I'm going to have a big night scoring; some nights I'm going to have a big night doing other things. Just doing whatever it takes to win the ballgame, not necessarily sitting up here worrying about scoring 30 points.Collection: Winning
If we lose a couple in a row this season, it will be like the World Trade [Center] is coming down again.Collection: Couple
My life changed in a huge way. Mentally, I've been preparing for it for over a year now. To me, it's bigger than that. For me, it shows a lot of people that you need to fight to be in your kids' lives sometimes. You fight until you can't fight any more. That's all I was trying to be, a father in his kids' lives.Collection: Father
When I come home, I'm not a basketball player, but "dad". While everyone sees me as an NBA player, to my boys, I'm just "dad" and that's very important.Collection: Basketball
There is only a relationship between music and sports because all athletes want to be rappers and all rappers want to be athletes.Collection: Sports
Everybody was calling. I think everybody called every player in the league. Thats history right there.Collection: Player
We're focusing on what we need to do. The only attention we're thinking about is giving each other the attention that we need as a team, and making sure that everyone in here knows how they important they are to our success.Collection: Team
Chicago is a beautiful city. It's one of those places that people around the world see and say, 'Maybe one day.' There's so much excitement in the city about what you can accomplish and what you can be. We get this stigma, and rightfully so, because of the killings, but it's one of the best cities in the world. I'm biased, but I think it's a great city. Not only to be from, but to go to.Collection: Beautiful
My name is very important to me. I'm representing the Wade name. I've got the name on the back of my jersey when I play. I walk around with that name. That's my family name, the name my son will grow up with. So it's very important to me to keep the level of maturity that I have.Collection: Growing Up
My priority as a father should always remain first. My kids look to me as their example. Every decision I make and everything that I do always has to come back to the question, "Does this make me a better father?" "Will my kids benefit from this?" It's no longer just about me…but about my kids. My perspective in life has changed.Collection: Father
Now is a time where social media allows people to be heard on a different level. Everyone is using their voice.Collection: Media
I think this is where we're trying to get to eventually as a league too hopefully. To have an opportunity to represent and be a leader of a global brand, for me, it was a great decision.Collection: Opportunity
I have to give credit to the NBA, because they've done an unbelievable job of taking our game global and putting us in a position to be able to come here and other places in the world and see how big the game of basketball is. If you have never been here, you might not really understand how amazing and how big basketball is. These fans in China love the sport, and they have more players playing than we have people living in the US.Collection: Basketball
I love football. I'll watch the NFL before I watch any NBA.Collection: Football
I had an unbelievable opportunity here to try and follow in similar footsteps [of Michael Jordan], but in a different capacity hopefully. I took that opportunity and I'm excited about it.Collection: Opportunity
