Dwyane Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union receive TRANSPHOBIC jeers about daughter Zaya as they leave MSG with one individual yelling 'you mutilated your son' amid boos

Former NBA star Dwyane Wade was booed and had transphobic comments hurled at him as he left the Knicks game against the Miami Heat with wife Gabrielle Union.

The 41-year-old, who played for the Heat for 16 years, was at Madison Square Garden Sunday to watch his former team rout the hosts.

However, the retired, three-time NBA championship winner, who is the father of 15-year-old transgender model Zaya, faced homophobic jeers as he left the game.

In a clip provided to DailyMail.com by Adam Glyn, who filmed the incident, Wade can be seen following his wife Gabrielle towards a car.

Some of the sports fans gathered outside the arena began to boo the former shooting guard, with one shouting, 'You mutilated your son,' at Wade in reference to Zaya.

Zaya legally changed her name and gender in February after coming out as trans aged 12, following a court battle between Wade and his ex-wife, Siohvaughn Funches-Wade.

A Los Angeles County judge signed off on the new identity for Dwyane's 15-year-old child in documents obtained by TMZ.

The judge also granted her official gender change from male to female. The petition for the name and gender was filed last August. Last November, Zaya's mother contested the petition made by Wade, claiming that their child was being pressured financially to make the decision.

Recently, the NBA legend revealed that he and his family left Florida due to what he claims are restrictive policies that infringe on the rights of LGBTQ people.

He has spoken about the need to accept and embrace people for who they are, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation and his advocacy for the LGBTQ community has earned him widespread praise and admiration.

The people telling them their viewpoints are not afraid of them, so they weren’t phobic remarks of any kind.

Ah, the Daily Mail, purveyors of the latest in cutting edge raw propaganda. Wonder who would cite them as a source on other matters?

Homophobic, transphobic – they know not whereof they speak. A phobia is an irrational fear. We’re not afraid of fags and trannys. We may detest them, but we’re not afraid of them.

That Facebook page is NOT affiliated with Rush Limbaugh. It is a fake page run by "VIP Ad Solutions LLC" which produces spam articles for dozens of sites, where they just steal other content and repost it. I have reported them to no avail. They even use Rush's FACE!

That’s a tragic injustice! I suspect under the circumstances even if the mother had joint custody they would have allowed the rich and famous father/ stepmother to do whatever they wished. Even with a fit mother. The judge stinks.

Telling someone the truth “you mutilated your son” is NOT “homophobic”...IT IS THE TRUTH! PERIOD!
