NBA legend Dwyane Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union were the subject of heckling on Sunday evening as they left Madison Square Garden following the Miami Heat’s Game 1 victory over the New York Knicks.

"Why did you mutilate your son?" one person can be heard on video.

Wade did not answer any of the jeers.

The heckling came a few days after the former Heat guard revealed the reason why he and his family moved out of Florida a few years ago. His interview with Rachel Nichols was released as he and Zaya won a court battle in Los Angeles to legally change her name and gender from boy to girl.

He said that he and his family no longer live in Florida over fears that he and his family would not "feel comfortable there."
