This young lad looked delighted to be sitting next to Rihanna at the Lakers game

This young Lakers fan was no doubt happy to see his team enjoy a seven point victory on Friday night, but the real highlight seemed to be the company he was keeping.

The Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors on a scoreline of 102-95, and while that in itself would put a smile of fans of Kobe and company, one young supporter thoroughly enjoyed his night as he was seated next to Rihanna.

The singer was courtside to take in the action and if the pictures are anything to go by, the lad had great difficulty in taking in any of the actual basketball. Not that we can blame him.

A night that will probably live long in the memory.
