| Dwyane Wade Wears the Jordan Element Posted: 09 Sep 2009 12:28 PM PDT  There’s been tons of speculation into Dwyane Wade’s newfound relationship with Jordan Brand, and how it will play out in the 2009-2010 NBA Season. D-Wade was the undisputed heavyweight for Converse, and had 4 signature models with the company. Now under Jordan Brand, he shares that title with fellow All-Star Carmelo Anthony, and lords over a number of other players, including DJ Augustin, the recent-signee we interviewed. Which shoe will the Heat guard wear this season? Factor in that Dwyane is a part of the much talked-about 2010 free agent group and this could be his last season in red, black and white, adding another factor into the mix. As for now, it looks as though he’s taken a liking to training in the Air Jordan Element, and coaching youngsters in the 60+s. Then again, as he’s revealed through his twitter page, he’s got a lot of options to choose from, so you’ll have to wait for Kicks On Court 2009 to find out exactly which JB model he’ll play in. | Read the rest of Dwyane Wade Wears the Jordan Element
