Dwyane Wade
The basketball player best known as D-Wade didn’t come to Nebraska football fanhood because he attended school in the state or was born here. His fandom comes from the fact that he married one of the biggest Husker fans in the country.
Wade is the husband of Gabrielle Union. That doesn’t appear to mean he’s faking his love for the program.
There have been more than a few comments from the NBA star that can only mean he really has embraced the Huskers. Wade was even willing to lend his support on television when he and Union made an appearance at the Spring Game this year.
When it comes to guessing just who some of the biggest celebrities in the country are that are also Nebraska football fans, this guy’s name is probably on the tip of people’s tongues.
The Cornhuskers fans around the country always love to point to famous people who are will to spread the word through their fame. It certainly can’t hurt to have one of the best NBA players from this generation being a well known Nebraska football fan.
