Kanye West and Timothée Chalamet among stars in attendance at LA Lakers Christmas Day contest against Boston Celtics

Kanye West and Timothée Chalamet were among the notable names in attendance at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Christmas Day Monday to watch the hometown Lakers fall to the Boston Celtics by a score of 126-115.

West, 46, plodded forward without expression as he was mobbed by fans seeking autographs and selfies as he made his way toward the downtown Los Angeles venue.

The Grammy-winning artist was flanked by a security team who kept people at bay as they tried to get him to sign things.

West, the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian, was clad in a long black leather coat over a black T-shirt with a purple sweatshirt draped over his head.

West has somewhat fallen out of the limelight after more than a year of repeatedly expressing antisemitic views and praising Adolf Hitler, which led to him losing a number of lucrative partnerships.

NBA icon LeBron James had a busy day with 16 points, eight assists and nine rebounds, but his team fell short on the holiday.

It was the third game on Christmas Day between the two most storied franchises in the league. The Minneapolis Lakers won in Boston in 1951, and Los Angeles was victorious in 2008.

Kristaps Porzingis had 28 points and 11 rebounds, Jayson Tatum added 25 points for the Celtics in the win, while Jaylen Brown had 19 points and Derrick White chipped in with 18 points and 11 rebounds.

All five starters had at least 18 points for the Celtics, who have won three straight and 12 of their past 14.

For the Lakers, Anthony Davis scored a game-high 40 points with 13 rebounds, LeBron James had 16 points, nine rebounds and eight assists, but the team has dropped six of eight since winning the inaugural In-Season Tournament.

After trailing for the only time in the game early in the third quarter when Jarred Vanderbilt threw down a dunk, Boston ripped off seven straight points to regain the lead.

Porzingis had 13 points, helping spot the Celtics a nine-point advantage going into the fourth.

Boston successfully kept Los Angeles at arm´s length in the final quarter, despite Davis hitting the 40-point mark for the 40th time in a regular season game.

The Celtics ran right over the Lakers´ starting lineup, scoring the first 12 points capped by a 3-pointer from Brown, and would lead by as many as 18 in the first quarter.

Los Angeles got back in it in the second, thanks to some hot shooting from Taurean Prince. He had 11 points making all four of his shots, including three 3´s, to cut the deficit to 58-57 at the half.

Both teams got a scare when Brown and James were shaken up in a collision with 4:02 left in the second.

Brown was cutting back to the ball when he took a bad step and pulled up, leading to James kneeing him in the back.

Each player was attended to on the court, with Brown going back to the locker room before returning to start the third quarter.
