D-Wade jokingly jabs NBA for $25,000 fine


Gabrielle Union's birthday is on Saturday, so Dwyane Wade wrote an Instagram caption wishing her the best. It starts out complimenting her, then he gets in a dig at the NBA for the $25,000 fine he was given for celebrating his clutch 3-pointer with a throat-slash gesture.

Wade wrote to his wife:

Radar Radar oooooohhhh you was on my Radar!!! From then to now. Happy Birthday ageless one. I would have gotten you something extravagant but I just got fined for 25grand. Set a brother back like a big dog BUT we will enjoy your day. I love you Mrs.Wade @gabunion

On Saturday morning on her Snapchat, Union goofed around and said, while laughing, "44 feels good. Feels a lot like 43."
