Bayern Munich legends Thomas Müller, Mats Hummels meet up with Jürgen Klopp for the NBA in Berlin

The former FC Bayern stars ran into some friends.

Former Bayern Munich stars Thomas Müller and Mats Hummels had a little get together in Berlin to watch the NBA game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Orlando Magic.

As it turns out, the boys also ran into another familiar face — former Mainz 05, Borussia Dortmund, and Liverpool FC head coach (and future Real Madrid boss) Jürgen Klopp.

German players (and brothers) Franz Wagner (18 points) and Mo Wagner (7 points) helped power the Magic to a 118-111 victory.

As for the German football legends who were in attendance, maybe they were just all there by coincidence…or maybe Klopp is looking to bring a little German influence to his new gig with Real Madrid.

(We kid, we kid)

The boys did run into one more all-time great…former NBA megastar and Dallas Mavericks icon Dirk Nowitzki — and apparently another former NBA stars Steve Nash and Detlef Schrempf, too.

Not a bad day, eh?
