The Olympic Games always bring together athletes from all different walks of life. And sometimes when that happens, you wind up getting a two-and-a-half foot height difference.

USA Basketball center DeAndre Jordan (who stands 6-foot-11) posed on Friday for a funny photo with 4-foot-6 American gymnast Ragan Smith.

Had a fun time meeting Deandre Jordan yesterday!??

For Jordan, who also holds a 12-year age advantage over the teenage Smith, we can probably expect him to similarly dwarf many an opposing player over the course of Olympic competition these next couple of weeks.

As for Smith, who is an alternate on the women’s gymnastics team this year, perhaps next time she should trying posing for a photo with somebody like Kyle Lowry instead.
