[Saba Sports News] Two U.S. gold medalists created a viral photo this week.
Phoenix Suns All-Star Devin Booker, currently playing for USA Basketball at the Paris Olympics, met American gymnast Suni Lee and posed for a picture. In the photo, Booker towers over Lee, even while leaning slightly.
Booker, who won gold with USA Basketball at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, is aiming for a repeat as a starter on a loaded U.S. team now in the semifinal round. Lee, the women’s individual all-around gold medalist at the Tokyo Games, has completed her run in Paris, securing three more medals: gold in the team competition and two individual bronzes in the all-around and uneven bars.
Booker is tall at 6-foot-6, but Lee stands only 5-foot-0, explaining the significant height difference. This isn’t as drastic as the height difference in a photo Lee’s teammate Simone Biles once took with a seven-footer.
