Jake watches the Lakers and the Nuggets, 21 May

Obligingly continuing the sporting and fitness theme of recent days, Jake Gyllenhaal was one of several stars who saw the Lakers take on the Denver Nuggets at the Staple Center yesterday. Front of house honours went, this time, to Tom Cruise and his son. You can see some of the other famous faces here.




Unfortunately, Jake was not a good mascot for the Lakers - the result was a close one and ended the Lakers' 24-year winning streak against the Nuggets.

Thanks to Monica for the heads up and a gold star for anyone who can recognise the chap with Jake! Thanks to IHJ for the pics.

could this guy be some relative of Paul Rudd? :P

Nice to see Jake at a better sport environment *g*

Hi there Winterbird! Blimey, he really does look like Paul Rudd doesn't he?!

Great game last night - sorry, I was rooting for Denver, and I did see a lot of celebrities, not Jake, unfortunately, but nice to see the pics! Thanks Monica! :)

Hey Bertie! And congratulations to the Nuggets :D (What a curious name!) I've been looking at some of the pics and it must have been quite a battle for the front row - Jack Nicholson, Tom Cruise, Will Farrell, Lio DiCaprio etc. And the lovely Jake :D

Great to have new pics in time for the weekend :D The lovely Stephanie has the pics now so I'll replace the ones in the post.

I thought I saw Leo! And I did see Tom Cruise, Teri Hatcher, Jack Nicholson, and I really wanted to see Jake, but I missed him! Good thing we have pics. Go Carmelo Anthony! Kobe was great too. A terrific game, can't wait for the next one!

Have a great day all,

Yeah, Leo was there! I'll update the post when I get home because it was quite a glitzy affair. Very distracting, I would have thought, but I'm glad you enjoyed the game, Bertie :D

Paul Rudd? Do you mean the guy on the left side of the picture? Looks a little like John Cryer....
Jake seemed more intent on watching the game than listneing to the guy talk.

Morning Paul :D Sounds like it was an edge of the seat kind of game...

I hope everyone has a great start - start of a holiday weekend for many of us, I think (although not for me, unfortunately - I drew the short straw...) - and it's a beautiful sunny warm day out there. Off to the pictures later :D

The guy reminds me of that Dancing with the Stars guy from last year? The race car driver, Helio Castelneuvo? I probably got his name wrong. I don't think this is him, but he resembles him, IMO.
