Big Foe, King James: two sporting giants converged at the Washington Wizards-Los Angeles Lakers game.
“Nothing but love OG,” Tiafoe wrote on Instagram along with a video commemorating the meeting.
The warm-up embrace was the culmination of a months-long lovefest between Tiafoe and James, who tweeted his congratulations when the former scored a US Open upset over Rafael Nadal.
“Man, I was losing it in the locker room,” Tiafoe said at the time. “Bro, I was going crazy. Yeah, I mean, that’s my guy. So to see him post that, I was like, ‘Do I retweet it as soon as he sent it?’ I was like, ‘You know what, I’m going to be cool and act like I didn’t see it and then retweet it three hours later.’”
