Dwayne Wade reveals insane story on LeBron James' during a trip to the Bahamas.

Dwayne Wade created his own legacy with his time in the NBA. The legendary NBA star becoming the greatest player in Miami Heat franchise history. However, along his journey, Wade had the opportunity to play alongside his good friend LeBron James. Wade and James would go on to make more magic together. As the pair were part of back-to-back NBA championship victories in Miami. But their friendship goes beyond the basketball court. The two will also forever be linked to the banana boat crew.

The two superstars have been known to take family trips together in the off-season. Which is where the iconic banana boat picture was taken. However, in a recent interview, Wade talked about vacation James. Including a wild tale of James becoming Jeff Hardy at a Bahamas pool. "[He] looked down and said, 'How deep you think that is?' 8-9 feet. He said, 'Let me see,' took his stuff off, jumped into the pool from the balcony. I promise you."

Dwayne Wade Cherishes Friendship With James

As Wade finished the story Rachel Nichols was in disbelief. Yes, the incident could have ended badly for James. However, it seems vacation James is a different beast. When discussing iconic duos in NBA history, the former Heat pair can't be skipped. The Miami Heat franchise was the first so-called super team to win more than one title. As the Boston Celtics only won one with KG, Pierce, and Allen. However, their tenure in Miami wasn't always roses. The team started and ended their journey with painful Finals losses.

It appears that James has the same thoughts we all have. I guess he is human, after all. However, lying by the pool in the Bahamas is the furthest thing from James' mind at the moment. James and the Lakers will be looking to advance to the second round on Friday night. With a win, the Lakers will eliminate the Grizzlies from playoff contention. Maybe the Lakers would like to see the side of James that Dwayne Wade revealed in his interview. It's going to take everything for the Lakers to advance to the next round.
