Nick Kyrgios is currently riding high on form and is a potential threat to every defending champion. The Australian tennis professional at first raided the grass courts of Wimbledon and then swept the Citi Open. He marked both singles and doubles titles at the ATP 500 event.

Although, as Kyrgios is keeping busy extracting the best out of his peak, he isn’t getting enough time to spend with his mates. The Aussie recently stumbled upon a picture of LeBron James and Draymond Green enjoying the off-season of basketball. That in turn motivated him to recreate the same with fellow tennis professional and friend Thanasi Kokkinakis.

Nick Kyrgios has things planned
