‘They Back Together?’: NBA Fans React To Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Attending Lakers v Celtics

The Los Angeles Lakers are struggling at 12-12 this season. Fans didn’t expect to see this side of the Lakers after 24 games, and they appear to be getting in a muddle to “get it together.”

In the Western Conference, their opponents, the Golden State Warriors, and Phoenix Suns look like they could be absolute juggernauts moving forward.

Additionally, there was another incident that got fans’ eyes glued to the television during the game, which was the appearance of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck at the Los Angeles Lakers game.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are accidentally video bombed by LeBron James

The relationship of this star-studded couple initially lasted from 2001-2004. After breaking up, the pair recently reunited and were seen on a night out when the Los Angeles Lakers took on the Boston Celtics. 

While the cameraman took the video focusing on the couple, none other than LeBron James decided to photobomb the celebrity couple. But who can blame him as NBA fans prefer him more than any celebrity?

James may have taken the spotlight away from “Bennifer”, but that doesn’t matter as much since Lakers fans are motivated to root for the team right now purely through their drive to win.

In response to the tweet featuring the couple together for the first time in quite a while, some fans were thrilled to see them again, while others were still processing the match since it was a difficult season for Lakers fans.

Lakers fans may be distraught as they enter the quarter mark of the season after the team suffered a devastating loss to the Clippers.

While watching the game, it was nice to see the iconic couple together after a long break. Seeing a celebrity on the court-side is nothing new, but this appearance may stick in the audience’s mind with the question “will they get back together for good?”.

As of now, the ultimate answer still remains in question since the couple came under the spotlight at the Los Angeles Lakers game. But it will be interesting to see if this reunited pairing will last moving forward.

How do you feel about the reunion? Let us know.
