Tom Brady is in Las Vegas ahead of “The Match,” an exhibition golf outing typically between some combination of pro golfers and professional athletes from other sports that started back in 2018.
And with so many things to do and get into in the City of Sin, what activities does someone of Tom Brady’s status partake in during the night ahead of the big event?
How about a little bit of WNBA action?
The seven-time Super Bowl champion pulled up to Michelob Ultra Arena inside the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino to get a courtside view of the Las Vegas Aces vs. Connecticut Sun.
FIRST class basketball. Thanks for having me. @LVAces @WNBA https://t.co/uBrrU11MKs

And as Brady got a taste of the WNBA, he probably didn’t know that he was getting an up-close viewing experience of his biggest fan, Las Vegas Aces’ point guard Kelsey Plum.
Plum dropped 18 points in the Aces’ win but her biggest victory of the night came during halftime when she got to interact with Brady, her favorite athlete ever, for the first time.
Following the game, the reigning WNBA Sixth Woman of the Year talked to the media about the experience.
Dawgggssss 😂😈🤝 @TomBrady https://t.co/KIXHiPbBAx

She barked at the GOAT! This is going to be a story that lives forever.
If Brady (with teammate Aaron Rodgers) has some dog in him during Wednesday’s golf match vs. Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen, we’ll know it was Plum who sparked it.
