Brian Gaines+FollowKing James Calls a Wendy’s TimeoutSuperman Dwight Howard just dropped a hilarious Redeem Team story on Podcast P. Turns out, it was King James himself who called for a pit stop at a California gas station Wendy’s during the 2008 Olympics run. The whole squad—multiple All-Stars—risked the usual security for some burgers and Frostys. Howard was so hungry he barely noticed Chris Bosh filming the moment. Just another example of LeBron’s leadership, bringing the team together even off the court! #Sports #Basketball #RedeemTeam40Share
