NBA: James makes good on wager, wears Cubs kit to Bulls game

Chicago (AFP) - Cleveland star LeBron James made good on a World Series wager Friday, sporting a full Chicago Cubs baseball uniform upon arriving for the Cavaliers' Friday NBA game at the Chicago Bulls.

In a bet with friend and former teammate Dwyane Wade, now with the Bulls, James agreed that he would turn out in the Cubs kit if the Chicago team beat the Cleveland Indians in baseball's championship showcase this year.

The Cubs did indeed end their epic title drought, battling back from a 3-1 series deficit to do so.
