LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, and Chris Paul are all very good friends. The quartet is affectionately known as the Banana Boat Crew, referencing a picture they all took together while on vacation together. The four of them have been very close for a while, and this video from their time in Team USA just shows their camaraderie.
During a Team USA practice session, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, and Chris Paul were signing autographs. Melo and D-Wade turned their attention to Paul, with Wade signing his face, and both players telling him to carry their bags and calling him ‘rook’, referencing the fact that Paul was the least-tenured among all of them.
Paul doesn’t seem to be upset with the light hazing, as it is just friends having a good time together. The four stars really enjoyed spending time with each other and bantered with each other throughout the course of their careers. The quartet has definitely shown that friends in the NBA can compete against each other at the highest level.
LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, And Chris Paul Have Immense Respect For Each Other
All four players have shown they love spending time together and enjoy being around each other. Most recently, James, Wade, and Paul showed up to the ESPY Awards to pay tribute to Carmelo Anthony, who was being recognized for his incredible career that just came to an end.
LeBron James even got the chance to play on the same team as two of the others, as he and Wade teamed up in Miami and won two NBA championships together. Whereas Carmelo Anthony’s final season in the NBA was with LeBron James on the Los Angeles Lakers.
James and Paul haven’t gotten the chance to play together, and are nearing the tail end of their careers. Whether they team up with each other before they call time on their careers remains to be seen.
