Muggsy Bogues and Yao Ming Take the Goofy Photo the Internet Needs

Muggsy Bogues stands five-foot-three and is the shortest player in NBA history. Yao Ming stands seven-foot-six and is one of the tallest players in NBA history.

The two now-retired ballers have finally come together to pose for a photo that's sure to make the Internet giddy at its goofiness:

NBA chief operating officer Adam Silver posted the photo late Wednesday to Instagram, where it's since become a hit with fans of both sports and trippy photos. The shot was taken during the NBA's current promotional tour in China, Yao's home country.

If this isn't enough to hold you over until basketball season starts later this month, here's a bonus gallery of 12 of the most emasculating dunks in NBA history.
