Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union both like to be in charge, the retired NBA player says.
“We’d have to do therapy after and before we go on the show,” Wade joked.
The show follows as teams of two attempt to complete a series of games that appear easy (but are in fact, not), while inside a structure. Players must accomplish seven tasks — and get some help from Wade — to win $250,000.
“I mean, I give a lot of credit to the couples that come on the show,” said Wade.
Wade and actress Union have been together for over a decade and married for six years. The couple shares 2-year-old daughter Kaavia, as well as kids Zaya, 13, Zaire, 19 (Wade’s from his first marriage), Xavier, 7 (Wade’s from an ex), and Dahveon, 19, (Wade’s nephew).

Earlier this year, during their cover interview with PEOPLE, Wade said that he and Union have had to learn how to best support each other in order to make their marriage work. “It’s about learning each other, learning what she wants for her life and for her career and trying to support all those things,” he explained.
“This is both of our second marriages, and we’re super transparent about that,” Union added in the interview. “We didn’t do it right, the first time around. There’s another way — to be more collaborative and equitable. We humble ourselves, listen and we meet in the middle.”
Wade,who recently announced he’d joined the ownership group of the Utah Jazz, also told PEOPLE that he supports his wife for exactly who she is.
