Dwayne Wade played with a lot of different teammates over the course of his 16-year NBA career and shared a few of his favorites while appearing on "All the Smoke" with fellow retirees Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.

Wade started off his list with former Miami Heat teammate Udonis Haslem, whom he credited with saving him "a lot of money on fines."

"Obviously, everyone knows UD is my favorite teammate ... Mr. Miami," Wade said at the 54:55 mark of the podcast.

Channing Frye, James Jones, and Eddie House made Wade's list as well.

"So it's all the guys that, man, once you go through, especially you're going through this league as a star, these the guys that you lean on, right?" Wade said. "These the guys that bring some human to you. These the guys that you can talk about anything and they're always there, that shoulder and that ear, tend to listen to you whine and complain about being a star in the league."

Wade also spoke with Barnes and Jackson about the Big Three era in Miami, preparing his oldest son Zaire for college, and the younger NBA players he enjoys watching.
