It is always fascinating when two legendary athletes meet up on the world’s biggest stage.
In this particular instance, star forward LeBron James, who is on a quest for his third Olympic gold medal and fourth overall with Team USA, crossed paths with arguably the greatest quarterback in NFL history in Tom Brady.
Brady, who is set to call NFL games for Fox Sports this Fall, is in Paris to witness some of the events and support Team USA.
In the video, Brady can be seen chopping it up and wishing James and Co. good luck.

This is simply respect between two of the greatest American athletes to have ever lived.
Both are MVPs and champions who dominated or have dominated their respective sports for over two decades.
Nobody has ever shown the type of longevity and consistency that these two have shown across their historic careers.
Of course, Brady was never able to play in the Olympics.
But to see the seven-time Super Bowl winner come all this way to support some of his countrymen and women is a neat sight for all fans who love sports.
James and Co. are set to face Brazil in the quarterfinals of the men’s tournament on Tuesday with the team currently sitting with an undefeated record after group play.
It would not be a surprise at all if Brady showed up to support the team then.
Just as he did during his playing career, he would be supporting his peers on the biggest stage.
