It was not just another regular NBA night at Crypto.com Arena. The spotlight wasn’t only on the court — it was also courtside. Justin Bieber was in the front row as the Los Angeles Lakers hosted the Orlando Magic, and his energy quickly caught everyone’s attention. Bieber didn’t sit quietly like most celebrity guests. From the opening minutes, he was fully into the game, especially when it came to cheering for LeBron James.
Every time LeBron made a move, Bieber reacted. When LeBron hit a three-pointer, Bieber stood up and clapped loudly. When he drove into the lane and scored to give the Lakers a 16-10 lead, Bieber jumped out of his seat and hyped him up like a true fan.

LeBron looked sharp early. He scored 10 points in the first quarter and played with confidence and control. Luka Dončić also made his presence felt, scoring 11 points while adding four rebounds and four assists in the opening period.

Los Angeles controlled most of the game early on. They led by as many as 12 points in the second and third quarters and looked comfortable for long stretches. LeBron James set the tone in the first quarter, scoring 10 quick points, including two three-pointers. Luka Dončić also played a key role, helping the Lakers take an eight-point lead by the end of the first quarter. However, Orlando stayed within reach. Wendell Carter Jr. was a major problem for the Lakers inside the paint. He scored easily around the basket and finished strong whenever he got second chances. The Magic also dominated the offensive boards, grabbing 13 offensive rebounds and scoring 15 second-chance points. That made a big difference in such a close game.
