Naomi Osaka has an unwavering passion for sports. Aside from the racket game, the Japanese tennis star has been an avid fan of the NBA, as witnessed by her courtside appearances. The 4-time singles Grand Slam champion was previously sighted in the stands during the Knicks vs. Lakers clash in New York City. This time around, it was the blockbuster match between the LA Lakers and Sacramento Kings that piqued the interest of the WTA superstar.
