According to Fox Sports Online, the Miami Heat point guard has been fined with $15,000 by the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a result of his reaction.
Meanwhile, responding to his punishment, January 26, Wade stated that the association could do better in protecting the players:
He told the Associated Press, 'the
NBA is an unbelievable league, and I’m one of the first ones to be
doing NBA Cares and all these things in the community, but they need to
protect us a little more,
'They need to
do a better job of protecting players in the arena. It’s open game on
us. We’re big boys, we can take it, but everyone has their breaking
point.'
He further argued that he initially
tried to ignore the disruptive fans, but as the night went on, the
disrespectful comments about his wife worsened.
'You
can talk about me all day,' he added. 'I really don’t care what you say
about me because I know at the end of the day when I walk off that
court most of those guys would see me in the back hallway and want to
shake my hand. When it gets too personal about your family, that’s too
far. But it’s not going to stop.'
Even though his coach Erik Spoelstra agreed that fans can get really out of hand, he also stated that this doesn’t give players the right to act out of character.
Wade isn;t the first black athlete to respond to rude fans. Carmelo Anthony also exchanged obscenities with Kevin Garnett on the court a while ago after he said some not-so-nice things about his wife LaLa Anthony.
Do you think history was repeating itself?
