As that news drove the Hollywood circles mental, Diesel was present tonight in Los Angeles to cheer on LeBron James. A former franchise hero, Robert Horry also sat down to watch the battle to keep the season alive. Actor Jason Sudeikis and undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather also swarmed the courtside seats.
