Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has given NFL fans many memorable moments throughout his decorated NFL career. But recently, Brady was given a memorable moment during his night out for a high-profile basketball game. It was a WNBA game between Las Vegas Aces and the Connecticut Sun, and Aces star point guard Kelsey Plum was up to the task.

During the post-game presser, the reigning WNBA Sixth Woman of the Year revealed her admiration for the Buccaneers QB. She even calls Brady her “favorite athlete” and was in disbelief when she came to know he was sitting courtside.
But after realizing his presence in the Gucci row of the arena, Plum was determined to put on a show for the 7-time Super Bowl champion.

While the Aces star tried to play it cool and focus on the game, she eventually broke and went to share greetings with the legendary QB.
She reveals details about their meeting, and states, “I was like, ‘Screw it.’ I went right up to him. I dapped him up, gave him a big hug, and I was like, ‘Man, you’re a dog. I love you.’” She followed her statement with a ‘woof, woof, woof‘ barking imitation of a dog, and they formed a connection.
Kelsey Plum channeled her inner Tom Brady after seeing him
The WNBA star gave a proper account of her abilities and helped the Aces win by a scoreline of 89-81 against a formidable Sun team. She was influential throughout the game as she scored 18 points while leading the assist charts with seven dimes. After scoring her 3rd three-pointer in the game, she gave Brady a slight look after the play.

She channeled her inner Tom Brady winning mentality and led the team with some flair. Even the Buccaneers QB has been a player who leads by example for his teammates to be victorious.
The legendary QB also took to Twitter to thank the WNBA organization for the invite and their hospitality.
