Breaking Update: Ben Affleck’s 12-Year-Old Son Looks Just Like Him in New Photos…..See More

Ben Affleck and his 12-year-old son Samuel were spotted courtside at a Los Angeles Lakers game this week, and the tween is looking more grown-up—and more like his dad—than ever.

The pair supported the Lakers as they took on the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, Feb. 6, with Samuel wearing a jersey featuring LeBron James’ number 23.

Ben skipped the basketball-themed attire, opting instead for a beige turtleneck, jacket and pants.

At one point, Ben and Samuel were even seen wearing identical impressions as something apparently very exciting happened during the game

Luckily for the father-son duo, the Lakers beat the Warriors 120 to 112.

This isn’t the first time Ben and Samuel have been seen cheering on the Lakers, as they were also photographed at games in November 2024 and March 2024 (when Ben’s ex Jennifer Lopez accompanied the pair).

Last week, the father and son were photographed bonding with Ben’s new security dog in his Brentwood neighborhood.

In pics obtained by the Daily Mail, Ben watched as Samuel rode his bike, holding on to the German Shepherd’s leash simultaneously.

In addition to Samuel, Ben shares two children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Violet, 19, and Fin, 16.

While neither Affleck nor Garner’s homes were damaged in the Los Angeles fires, Affleck was forced to evacuate, reportedly sheltering at Garner’s house for the duration.

Garner and tech CEO John Miller have been dating since 2018.

“Jennifer adores John and still sees a long-term future with him,” a source told Us Weekly in 2023, noting that the actress wasn’t looking to “rush down the aisle” at the time.
