In a recent meeting of great stars, Baltimore Ravens MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson and San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama crossed paths in Paris, France.
Both athletes got a picture to commemorate the neat moment.
Of course, the picture is going viral on social media and Jackson had a funny response to that photo.
“He was on his toes,” Jackson tweeted.

For those that haven’t followed Wembanyama, he is a generational talent.
The reason is that he stands at 7-4 but can do all the things that a point guard or small forward can do.
That includes running the floor, pulling up for a jump shot and playing great defense.
He was the NBA’s Rookie of the Year and made All-NBA Defensive First Team after leading the league in blocks.
Jackson stands at what seemingly used to be considered a large height at 6-2.
So, the Frenchman stands over a foot taller than him.
That is why Jackson felt like he had to poke fun at the size differential.
Jackson is coming off of his second MVP season and nearly took the Ravens to the playoffs last year.
The team lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.
Regardless, both athletes are two of the very real and ascending athletes in sports.
Fans love watching them make magic happen on either the court or the field.
Perhaps down the road, they may cross paths again with a championship or two in hand.
For now, this is simply a cool moment that fans can appreciate.
