00:01Most NBA legends take their kids to championship arenas.
00:06Dwight and Wade took his daughter somewhere far more meaningful,
00:09the home where his journey began.
00:10You see where daddy grew up?
00:12Yeah.
00:13Super thankful for 14051.
00:16It made me who I am, man.
00:17It gave me so much to believe in, so much to dream about.
00:20So I love this place.
00:21Appreciate it.
00:23Standing outside his childhood house in Illinois,
00:26Wade reflected on growing up through his parents' divorce,
00:28his mother's battle with addiction,
00:30and how basketball became his escape from everything happening around him.
00:34For Wade, this wasn't just a trip down memory lane.
00:37It was a chance to show his daughter that every championship,
00:40every all-star appearance,
00:42and every dream started in that small house
00:45long before the world believed in him.
