Greatness Seeing Greatness: Throwback Clip Of Michael Jordan Playing Peekaboo With Olympic Athlete Katie Ledecky Goes Viral

You never know when you’ll cross paths with a future Olympic athlete. Odds are, Michael Jordan had no idea what Katie Ledeck’s future would hold when they first met. At the time, the future swimmer was only a toddler. But at this point, Jordan had already earned two Olympic medals himself — both of which were gold. With Ledecky continuing to break records left and right, a wholesome video of the two of them interacting has gone viral.

It seems that the clip takes place in a luxury box at a sporting event. There are quite a few people there, but Jordan and Ledecky are the ones who stand out. That’s because Jordan attempts to play a game of peek-a-boo with Ledecky! Meanwhile, she couldn’t care less. Instead, she’d rather focus on something much more important: the popcorn she’s eating! Watch this sweet moment in the video below.

Okay, so Ledecky does crack a smile at the end. Plus, it’s clear she was rather amused by Jordan’s silly antics the entire time anyway. Either way, it’s crazy to think about the fact that none of them had any idea what that talented tot’s future would hold!

You may be wondering: Why was Ledecky around Jordan when she was a baby? Turns out, her uncle, John Ledecky, was a co-owner of the Washington Capitals and Washington Wizards. More specifically, he held this role when Jordan became a minority owner of those two teams as well. How cool is that?

“Bro everything [Jordan] touches turns into championships,” one fans writes in the comment section of the video, with another person adding, “Proof that no one can stop Katie Ledecky.”
