Dwyane Wade, Sabrina Carpenter Surprise SNL Audience

During the opening monologue of Saturday Night Live hosted by Quinta Brunson, pop star Sabrina Carpenter and NBA legend Dwyane Wade made surprise appearances in a musical number celebrating being short. Brunson, who is 4'11", sang about the perks of being petite, and was joined by Carpenter, SNL cast member Marcello Hernandez, and eventually Wade, who humorously claimed that at 6'4", he feels short among basketball players. Wade joked about wanting to be included in the song, referencing how NBA heights create a different perspective on what is considered short. The segment was well-received on social media, with fans praising the energetic and fun dynamic between the unexpected group. Wade also participated in the show's closing segment, adding to the memorable nature of the episode.
