Tuesday night didn\u2019t just belong to the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a>. It belonged to the star-studded celebrities sitting underneath the bright lights of Crypto.com Arena, where basketball and Hollywood collided like two speeding convertibles driving down Mulholland Drive.<\/p>\n

When you attend a Lakers game, you don\u2019t just scan the floor, you scan the crowd<\/a> for a who\u2019s who of A-list athletes, actors and musicians. It\u2019s a cornucopia of trend-setters and influencers. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the quarterbacks because a lot of them showed up to watch the Lake Show host the Cleveland Cavaliers. LA Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert sat alongside his girlfriend Madison Beer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nearby sat Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young, and next to him was former Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson who\u2019s expected to be taken in the first round of the NFL Draft this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Also expected to go in the first round of the draft is former USC wide receiver Makai Lemon, he soaked in all the action as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And when you\u2019re playing the Cavaliers, the city of Cleveland has to be represented as well. Thankfully, former Guardians baseball player Kenny Lofton was also sitting courtside.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The world of music was well represented as well. In addition to Beer, the soundtrack of the game could have been performed by Halsey who stunned in a black top. <\/p>\n

Donovan Mitchell\u2019s fiancee Coco Jones was there too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rock bands also wanted to bask in the energy of the game. Red Hot Chili Peppers trio\u2014Anthony Kiedis, Flea, and Chad Smith\u2014buzzed like a live amp. Weezer\u2019s Scott Shriner and Brian Bell added their own alt-rock vibes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hollywood, naturally, didn\u2019t miss curtain call. Vivica A. Fox and Ciarra Carter sat together.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nicholas Hoult and Damson Idris added the modern star power. Noah Centineo showed off his t-shirt, and Emmy-award winning director Ben Winston might have been looking at all of them thinking which actor he wanted to cast in his next show.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They all watched the Lakers finish off the month of March with a 127-113 win<\/a> over the Cavaliers. They finished the month 15-2 and Luka Doncic scored a franchise-record 600 points over that span.\u00a0<\/p>\n
