Dwyane Wade prom surprise: A senior was surprised when the NBA star answered her call for him to join her at prom.

Wade surprised Nicole Muxo in Coral Gables, Florida, on May 17, showing up at her prom and dancing with her.

Wade said that he wished something like this had happened to him when he was in high school.

Muxo later in a video recording of the event told Wade: “Thank you for coming, it made my dreams come true,” 

“I’m just glad that we can make dreams come true,” said Wade in a car, about to head back and prepare for his upcoming game.

Muxo had posted a video on YouTube asking Wade to come in April, but hadn’t heard from him. She sent him a follow-up message on Twitter with the address of the ballroom. 

Muxo’s date, Laurent Chaumin, said he had a good time as well.

Wade said he took so long to decide because he wanted to make sure he wasn’t playing a game that night, as the Miami Heat are still in the NBA playoffs.

He later said via Twitter that he had a good time.

“I had a blast at Prom,“ he said. ”Never be scared 2 ask.”
