Zaire Wade, the eldest son of NBA legend Dwyane Wade, has been arrested in California after police responded to reports of an alleged domestic violence incident.

According to authorities, officers arrived at a Burbank residence in the early hours of the morning after receiving a 911 call reporting a woman screaming inside the home. Police say they found a woman with visible injuries to her face and body, though she declined transportation to a hospital after being evaluated by paramedics.

Zaire Wade, 24, was taken into custody on suspicion of felony domestic violence, criminal threats, and false imprisonment. During the investigation, officers also recovered a handgun from the residence and issued an emergency protective order for the alleged victim.

Court records show Wade was later released after posting a $50,000 bond. The case has now been submitted to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office, which will decide whether formal criminal charges will be filed.

A former basketball prospect, Zaire Wade previously played in the NBA G League before continuing his professional career overseas.

Neither Dwyane Wade nor other members of the Wade family have publicly addressed the arrest.

The investigation remains ongoing. As of now, no formal charges have been announced, and Zaire Wade is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.
