All-Star Athletes Who Are All-Star Dads

Westbrook has three kids with his wife, Nina. They were high school sweethearts and got married in 2015 when Westbrook was 25. Their first son, Noah, was born in 2017 and their twins, Skye and Jordyn, were born in 2018. He's obviously got his hands full! 

Dwayne Wade

Dwayne Wade is a retired basketball star and full-time dad. He's got five incredible kids (Kaavia, Zaire, Xavier, Dahveon, and Zaya) and is adamant about securing the best for them. He makes sure to show the public just how much he cares for his kids and how not to be an absentee father.

His 12-year-old daughter, Zaya, came out as transgender and was met with nothing but love from her family. Even when "fans" of Wade came at his daughter with abuse and violence, he pushed back. "As parents, we put our hopes and our fears on our kids. With Zaya, we decided to listen to her. She's leading us along this journey," he said on Good Morning America

Devon Still

Even though Devon Still is retired from football, he's still a notable name. In fact, he retired for a very special reason: for his little daughter. In 2014, at just four years old, Leah was going through the fight of her life with stage IV neuroblastoma. Thankfully, she beat her cancer diagnosis and remains cancer-free!
