Lamar Odom and Shaquille O’Neal are back on Kobe Bryant‘s team … in the celebrity attack on the Power Balance bracelet empire … TMZ has learned. TMZ has obtained court papers, which show Odom claims the company stiffed him out of $133,870 before it filed for bankruptcy back in November.
Lamar was a minority investor in the company … and swore by the non-scientifically proven magical powers the hologram-embedded bracelet is said to possess.
As for Shaq — a former Power Balance spokesperson — court docs show the big man is demanding $308,170.
The two join a long list of athletes who claim PB needs to open up its checkbook … including Kobe ($400,000), Blake Griffin ($20,000) and skateboarder Ryan Sheckler ($25,000).
TMZ broke the story … PB was ordered to shell out $57 million in a class action lawsuit after a bunch of former PB wearers called BS on the company’s claim that the bracelet could enhance balance, flexibility and strength.
