Dwyane Wade’s game show ‘The Cube’ canceled after three seasons

Hopefully Dwyane Wade’s broadcasting career is on better footing than his game show career.

The former Miami Heat superstar reportedly had his TBS game show The Cube canceled after three seasons on the air, according to Marc Berman of Forbes.

The Cube, an adaptation of the popular British game show, came to America in 2021 with Wade as its face. The show featured contestants competing in a series of games inside a giant glass cube for a chance to win up to $250,000. Naturally, given Wade’s involvement, the show was heavily advertised across TNT Sports’ properties, making it familiar to sports fans.

Fortunately for the three-time NBA champion, he may not need to rely on hosting a game show to continue his career in media. Last summer, Wade made his broadcasting debut alongside play-by-play announcer Noah Eagle during NBC’s coverage of the Olympic men’s basketball competition. Reviews of his performance were generally positive, leading many to predict that Wade could end up as part of NBC’s broadcast plans for the NBA when the network begins airing games next season.

NBC hasn’t released anything official on that front, though it was recently reported that Reggie Miller will serve as the network’s lead NBA analyst alongside play-by-play voice Mike Tirico.

Still, Wade could find himself on another broadcast team, especially when considering NBC is likely to tap Eagle as its No. 2 play-by-play voice and the duo worked well together last summer in Paris.

And if that’s the case, maybe it’s a good thing that Dwyane Wade will have a bit more free time to prepare for the next step in his career, rather than worrying about what his next line is on The Cube.
