Billie Jean King and Shaq posed for an excellent photo at the U.S. Open on Tuesday — and King’s caption to go along with it makes it even better. King, who is about 5-foot-5, wrote that she “never realized how tall he is.”
Indeed, NBA players are very tall, and it’s tough to really understand just how tall until you find yourself standing near (or right next to) a player.
Here’s Shaq in the crowd watching Caroline Wozniacki and Anastasija Sevastova in the quarterfinals match.

Wozniacki won 6-0, 6-2. She’ll face Angelique Kerber in the semifinals.
