See Gabrielle Union & Dwyane Wade's Baby Share Snacks & Bond with Her Dad While Watching TV
Gabrielle Union recently captured an adorable moment between Dwyane Wade and their daughter, Kaavia James, bonding over an NBA game while having snacks.
Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade are hands-on parents to their only daughter together, Kaavia James. The couple has been on cloud nine since her birth as the actress previously dealt with infertility issues.
Kaavia was born through a surrogate mother, which at first did not sit well with Union, who wanted to have a child conventionally and experience pregnancy. However, everything changed when Kaavia was born, and they have since shifted focus on her.

In a short video posted on Instagram, Wade dribbled a small ball in front of his little princess as she tried to take it from him. Although she was not successful in making a shot, they both had fun in the driveway.
