The son of an NBA legend is facing serious accusations after an arrest in California.
Dwyane Wade’s son, Zaire, was arrested earlier this week in Burbank on suspicion of domestic violence after police reportedly found a woman with cuts and lacerations on her face and body.
According to NBC Los Angeles, someone called 911 at around 5:30 a.m. local time on Sunday after hearing a woman screaming. When police arrived, they found the injured woman and Zaire.

Zaire was then arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence, criminal threats and false imprisonment after the parties spoke to authorities.
The 24-year-old was released just before noon later that day after posting a $50,000 bond. The outlet also said an emergency protective order was put in place, and the case was being forwarded to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

A handgun was also taken from the scene, the outlet added.
Zaire attended Sierra Canyon High School, where he was basketball teammates with LeBron James’ son, Bronny, for one season (Zaire’s senior year was Bronny’s freshman season). Their fathers won two titles together with the Miami Heat. He opted to turn pro instead of attending college and last played in South Africa in 2024.
Zaire is one of two children Dwyane had with his ex-wife, Siohvaughn Funches. Dwyane is now married to Gabrielle Union, and they have two children together. Wade also fathered another child with a third woman.
