Recently Andy Murray, double Grand Slam winner got to meet his own sporting Hero Luol Deng in Miami.

Now you can imagine these two sporting giants going head-to-head at their own game, but against each other?

Watch how this 'plays' out below

As part of Standard Life’s ‘Mastering Your Dreams’ campaign, former Miami Heat season ticket holder Murray, the current world No.2 and reigning Olympic champion, took time out from his gruelling training schedule ahead of the recent Miami Open to meet his fellow 2012 GB Olympian Deng.

The pair talked about their dreams and aspirations for the future in their respective sports, as well as their mutual love for Premier League side Arsenal.

Deng even admits he wished as a child he would stop growing so he could have played Premier League football. But he did go on to win two NBA All Stars so i guess it turned out ok anyway.

Murray and basketball star Deng, who was born in Sudan but grew up in the UK before moving to the USA, share a relentless approach to achieving excellence. Even on the basketball court, Murray was cursing his luck as he aimed for perfection during his one-on-one with Deng.

Standard Life’s ‘Mastering Your Dreams’ campaign tells the story of Murray’s commitment to excellence and advancing ambition in pursuit of success. ‘When Andy Met Luol Deng’ is the first in a series that shows Murray meeting sports people he admires for their personal commitment to giving all it takes to master their dreams.
