Dwyane Wade shares the struggles behind creating the ‘Redeem Team’

The 2008 US Olympics Roster starred Wade, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and many other legends who brought back the gold medal for their nation. Though the Americans have always been the favorite for a gold medal, 2008 was not an easy path at all.?

Coming off the disappointment in the 2004 Olympics, the men’s team had to make a statement in 2008. The fans of the game got to know the struggles faced by Wade and his men only because of the documentary ‘Redeem Team’.?

As a producer of this hit venture, Wade spoke about the hurdles he faced to create it. The 3x NBA champion shared, “It’s a very tough industry. It’s very competitive as we know and so to be able to get wins like the ‘Redeem Team’…it helps but it’s hard to get these scripts passed and get it on TV.”

If not for Wade, we might have never witnessed the memorable story behind the 2008 Olympics. Wade’s vision as a shooting guard is legendary and well-known. Well, it looks like his vision as a producer is also unmatched.?
