Tom Brady is even older than Dirk Nowitzki is, and he actually has a jumper that can compete.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Brady posted a video of himself playing basketball in the gym on Tuesday. Brady was going up against his son and hit a nice one-legged fadeaway over his son’s contest (albeit from inside of ten feet). Have a look.

The 44-year-old Brady said he won the matchup against his son but joked that he wasn’t encouraged by his chances for next year. He also shared a video of an Isaiah Thomas-esque lefty scoop shot he had over his son.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady will be returning for his 23rd NFL season in 2022. While basketball is a great cardio exercise to keep in shape, a 1-on-1 on a small halfcourt against his son was probably more for fun than anything.
We know though that Brady is a big-time basketball enthusiast. He has even tried in the past to wield his influence over the NBA world as well.
