Are NBA champion Dwight Howard and an ex MasterChef star whipping up some sizzling content together? The former Los Angeles Lakers big and revered chef Dam Churchill, recently teased their followers with some intriguing snaps from their latest encounter. In the clips, both icons were seen taking turns to give each other a taste of their own crafts.

While Howard was seen cooking alongside Chef Churchill, the two also decided to go for some hooping. However, judging from the post’s caption, it seems like the two might be concocting more than just a dish. The post was mutually shared by Churchill and Howard. At first, this was simply a collaboration post that read, “Chef Dwight X Chef Dan.”

However, there’s another special message added in the caption that hinted at another major collaboration. The caption read, This was as epic as it gets. We cooked a couple of delicious meals, had a blender shoot-out and dunk contest, and talked all things basketball and health.”

Furthermore, the duo teased, “Got a lot of content coming your way soon.” A collaboration between the legends of two different crafts is certainly the most intriguing way to start the year. The post also suggested a brief talk on health between Howard and the $5 million rich Chef.

Dan Churchill gained fame following his appearance on MasterChef Australia in 2013. Despite placing 8th that season, Churchill has established his own cafe in New York and published multiple cookbooks.

‘Superman’ had a sweet tooth as well as the craziest-ever diet with 25 candy bars, McDonald’s, Popeyes, and other delectable goods, which were rather hazardous to the player’s health. What’s surprising is that despite having an unhealthy diet, DH12 was able to dominate the game.

However, soon, Howard realized the impact of his unhealthy diet on his body when he got injured in 2012. Fortunately, the 3x DPOY decided to make a change in his diet that allowed him to contribute for another 8 years and win his sole NBA championship in 2020.
