Last week, Nike and the Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade announced that Wade was leaving Converse to join Nike's Jordan Brand division with Carmelo Anthony, Derek Jeter and Chris Paul. According to the Associated Press, Wade still had three years left on his deal with Converse but didn't want to stick around anymore.

"I didn't want to be in the Converse brand anymore because it seemed like they didn't know what to do with me," Wade told the Associated Press. "I want to go global. It's something I feel like I have to do. I want to continue to build my brand."

Wade signed with Converse as a rookie back in 2003, right before Nike bought the brand. His deal ran until 2011-12, but apparently he hasn't been into the latest editions of his shoe. Last season, he only wore his latest signature shoe once; he wore the 2006 edition for the rest of the season. Since Wade was the only star signed to Converse's basketball division, its future is up in the air. There's no word on when Wade's first Jordan Brand shoe will hit stores.
