Thank you for watching!

Simone Biles ranks relatively low among American Olympians, which includes legends such as Mark Spitz, Carl Lewis, Jenny Thompson, Katie Ledecky, Matt Biondi, Caleb Dressel, and Ryan Lochte, among others. However, gymnasts do not often win many gold medals over their careers. In fact, since 1904, the famous Anton Heida has held the record for the most gold medals won by an American gymnast at the Olympics. Simone Biles just smashed a 120-year-old record at the Olympics. So, yes, LeBron James’ appraisal of his compatriot is accurate. Biles has already won nine Olympic medals between her participations in Rio de Janeiro.

The games will be place in Tokyo and Paris.
