Dwyane Wade missed the Cleveland Cavaliers’ game against the Indiana Pacers because his agent, Henry “Hank” Thomas passed away. He was 64-years-old and died in Chicago on Saturday, January 17, 208. In the Instagram post below, Wade explains that he’s crying tears of sadness and joy and he reminisces about the hugging Hank.
Henry Thomas played a major role in the Miami Heat’s success. Wade signed with Thomas in 2003 when he was the president of CSMG Sports. Hank also represented Udonis Haslem, Chris Bosh, Tim Hardaway and many other Heat players.
Henry “Hank” Thomas, Dwyane Wade’s Agent
Hank played a major role in the Heat’s 2012 and 2013 NBA championships, representing numerous players on Miami’s roster. In 2009, Thomas joined CAA, the agency that previously represented LeBron James. At the time, LeBron was represented by Leon Rose. In 2012, James parted ways with CAA and he’s now represented by his childhood friends.
Unlike James, Wade stuck with CAA and Thomas has represented him for the last 15 years. In 2009, Thomas was sued by Kim Grillier, a recruiter who worked for him from 2001 to 2007. Grillier claimed that Thomas reneged on a oral promise to pay him 3 percent of marketing fees and 20 percent of Wade and Chris Bosh’s NBA playing contract fees.
Grillier claims that he brought Wade to Thomas’ office and announced that Dwyane would sign with CSMG. Thomas earned his J.D. from DePaul University. As Wade’s post explains, Hank may be gone, but he’ll never be forgotten.
