"[I'm] honestly inspired, and I told her the other day, it feels like corny to say but it's like everything you would want in someone that you would look up to. Obviously, I get to be with her and I love her, that's the most special part," the soccer star raved to NBC.

Rapinoe continued, "She just does things the right way. She plays with a sense of joy, she makes everyone else around her better on and off the court. She's just an amazing person, I'm gonna start tearing up. You're gonna make me cry on national TV."

Since the 1992 Barcelona Games, the U.S. women's basketball team has been without a single loss and now ties the U.S. men's basketball team's record for most consecutive Olympic golds in a team sport with seven (The men won the first seven golds from 1936-68 after basketball's Olympic debut).

Bird and fellow five-time gold medalist Diana Taurasi, who are both national champions at UConn and decorated WNBA stars, are not the only ones adding to their gold collection. Coach Dawn Staley previously won Olympic gold with the U.S. women's basketball team in 1996, 2000 and 2004.
