Just got my 5D4 on Friday and 7D2 was my prime sports body, but I am going to break in my 5D4 as a new sports prime with the 7D2 as the backup

I planned on the Tamron 70-200 2.8 G2 as my goto , but after watching a few vids, I am seeing folks like the135 F2 for indoor sports due to it's faster focus.

I could always put the 70-200 on the 7D2 or should I use the 24-70 G2 on it for the group and wider shots?

Has anyone shot indoor sports with the 135 on the 5D4 or any Canon FF.?

If carrying 2 bodies is okay I would put the 70-200 Tamron on one (probably the 7D2) and the 135 in the other (the 5D4).
