Athletes post sweet tributes to their dads, kids on Father's Day

Social media was flooded with pictures of dads on Sunday – and that included plenty of posts from the world's biggest athletes.

Superstar football, baseball and basketball players all took to Instagram on Father's Day to pay tribute to their dads.

Many of the athletes who are fathers themselves instead dedicated their social media posts to their own kids. Pedro Martinez, Malcolm Jenkins and Jayson Tatum were among those giving shout-outs to the tiny people who made them dads.

Several stars who have lost their fathers, like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Desean Jackson and Stefon Diggs, posted heartfelt messages in memoriam of their dads.
