No one can accuse Tom Brady of not having a sense of humor.
The legendary NFL quarterback had some fun at his own expense after posting a side-by-side picture with Spurs star rookie Victor Wembanyama.
The 6-foot-4 Brady, 46, only came up to the No. 1 pick’s shoulders in the photo he put on Instagram.
Wembanyama stands at an impressive 7-foot-4.
“Awesome to meet you @wemby. Incredible young man,” Brady captioned the post. “Usually I’d make some joke here about how I think I could get 10 and 10 against you, but let’s be real… you’d send my jumper into the club level.”
Brady then took a little jab at former teammate Julian Edelman, who is 5-10.
“PS: @edelman11 This is how you felt all those years?” he added.
But Brady didn’t stop there, and he continued the joke on X when he photoshopped the picture to make himself appear larger next to the towering NBAer.
“Media outlets asking for permission to use this photo. Yes you may, here is the file. Disregard other photoshopped images of me and Victor,” Brady jokingly wrote.
Wembanyama and Brady crossed paths at a dinner on Tuesday night ahead of the French rookie’s first game at Madison Square Garden.
The dinner was put together by Fanatics co-owner Michael Rubin, according to The Athletic, and Wembanyama said he and Brady “pretty much ran into each other” there.
“I really liked the vibe from him, very humble and interesting, but also interested [in other people],” Wembanyama said. “It feels really good to see successful but happy people. He just looks like he is happy with the life he’s got, and he makes other people around happy.”
The basketball star told reporters that he knew who Brady was and was learning more about American football.
Wembanyama averaged 19.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.6 blocks going into Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.
He scored two points and went 0-for-5 from the field in the first half against the Knicks.
