Dwyane Wade, the former NBA champion with the Miami Heat, continues to fight these days for his daughter Zaya's right to change her name and her sex and gender.
Already several years ago, Wade stated that his youngest son Zaion sees himself as a girl and that he supports him in the difficult process of gender change, while his ex-wife Shabiona, the mother, opposed the move and recently went to court demanding that the request Wade submitted on behalf of Zaya to officially change her gender and name .
Wade is preparing for the legal battle, but already makes it clear: "Zaya will be happier if she can become what she wants to be. The court's confirmation that Zaya's identity will be a woman will make her life more comfortable."
Wade also said: "The opposition to this on the part of her mother only discredits the girl and does not have any common sense. The legal decision should be a landmark that will give Zaya security and happiness."

Sabiona's claims against the move, according to her, stem in part from the fact that Dwyane Wade, the father, is only trying to profit from Zaion officially becoming Zaya.
"He can increase his financial income from this, since there are companies that pay him for it for publicity," claims Shabiona, but close associates of her ex clarify: "This is a ridiculous claim. Dwayne will submit the request to the court because Zaya asked him to."
