Ohio Artist Makes An Unusual Sculpture Of LeBron James
The bust depicts Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James in his yellow jersey. The texture of the statue is a little woolly — because it is made entirely of dryer lint.
STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. An artist in Ohio made a sculpture of LeBron James, a bust of the Cleveland Cavaliers star, in which the texture is a little bit fuzzy because it's made of dryer lint. Sandy Buffie gathered 30 gallons of dryer lint by asking for it on social media. Mix in three pounds of glue - there you go. Cavs fans can rub the sculpture for luck as Cleveland, down 3 games to none, tries to avoid elimination in the NBA Finals tonight. It's MORNING EDITION.
