Amare Stoudemire Pays LeBron James 50 Push-Ups After Losing Duke-Ohio State BetWith the NBA still on hold, the basketball world turned to the college game on Tuesday night for the matchup of Duke and Ohio State. The teams weren't the only two to have a stake in the outcome thanks to a friendly competition between LeBron James and Amare Stoudemire.

The two did not attend either university, but their fandom sparked a pregame wager. James tweeted his support for the Buckeyes prior to the game, which caught Stoudemire's attention and he promptly threw down a challenge of 50 push-ups to the loser. When Stoudemire's Blue Devils fell 85-63, his plan backfired on him. But, true to his word, got down to the floor and gave 50 good ones.

Check out the tweets that led to the bet below.
