Goff: The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics. I was nervous when I stood beside James. He felt very tall.

May 31, May 31, American female tennis player Coco Goff talked about her experience of partnering with Lakers forward James with the flag bearer of the US Olympic delegation at the opening ceremony of last year's Paris Olympic Games.

Gauff said: "It was when I was standing next to LeBron. In the first five minutes I saw him, he walked in with sunglasses and looked very cool. And I stood there waiting. I had to act cool, and he said hello and said, 'I'm glad to see you.' I also said, 'I'm glad to see you too.' I looked at Tommy and Jess next to me and sighed, 'OMG, LeBron James is here!' Then I plucked up the courage to invite him to appear on my TikTok account and say hello, but I was nervous standing by him, and I was just keep saying he was too tall. He said, 'I'm not that tall.' I said, 'OK, you're so tall.'"
