Devin Booker brought a camcorder with him to record the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics Friday and the results were glorious.

The Phoenix Suns guard posted the footage he recorded to X on Saturday that includes a behind-the-scenes look into his day as an Olympian in Paris.

The video features Booker’s journey from the team hotel to team bus before ultimately arriving on the Team USA boat that floated down the River Seine.

Plenty of USA Basketball stars including Suns forward Kevin Durant, as well as Mercury star Diana Taurasi, are featured in the footage captured by Booker.

Booker even poked fun at Team USA flag bearer LeBron James in his vlog and said:

“That boy standing like Captain America, that boy got posture! … Stop playing with Bron, Bron!”
