The friendship between Isaiah Thomas and Floyd Mayweather Jr. added another chapter Wednesday night.

While Thomas was busy dropping 38 points on the Wizards — and looked a lot like Larry Bird while doing it — he acknowledged his friend Mayweather after nailing a 3-pointer.

Twenty of Thomas' 38 came in the fourth quarter. Following the final buzzer, Thomas showed how good of a friend he is to Mayweather by literally giving him the shirt off his back.

Thomas and Mayweather's friendship — some would consider an evolving bromance — is well-documented. Recently, Mayweather has been campaigning on Twitter for Thomas to be voted an NBA All-Star Game starter.

Thomas and Mayweather have even hooped together in the past.

As controversial and polarizing as Mayweather may be, it's pretty neat to see he has such a good friend in Thomas. Sports friendships are just the best.
