David Beckham was in high spirits on Sunday as he took his courtside seat at The Venetian Macao to watch the 15th NBA China Games in Macau, China.
The former footballer, 50, beamed as he watched the second preseason game between the Brooklyn Nets and the Phoenix Suns, after attending Friday's match alongside Jackie Chan.
Despite The Suns triumphing with 132-127 in the opener, they were defeated in Sunday's game with Brooklyn taking the win with 111-109.
David cut a typically handsome figure in a forest green bomber jacket over a coordinating plain T-shirt and khaki trousers.
The father-of-four looked transfixed by the scenes on the court, in between chatting to former NBA player Vince Carter.
It's been a busy week for the England star, who jetted from London to China shortly after the premiere of his wife Victoria's new docuseries.

The Netflix show sees the former Spice Girl, 51, candidly telling how she suffered from an eating disorder after she didn't like what she saw in the mirror.
While across the three episode, for the first time the fashion designer shares her fears of how her fashion label would go bust after spending so many years in the red.
After celebrating its release, David thanked his wife Victoria for giving them their 'beautiful' son Brooklyn amid an ongoing feud that has estranged them from their eldest child.
The former Manchester United and England footballer also praised the fashion designer for 'showing people her struggles' following Netflix documentary release.
On Wednesday, Victoria was surrounded by her nearest and dearest at the screening of her new docu-series before partying the night away in celebration.
However, Brooklyn was thousands of miles away in Beverly Hills with his wife, American actress Nicola Peltz.
Despite the ongoing tensions between Brooklyn and his family, David credited Victoria for giving him 'four beautiful children'.
In a post to Instagram on Thursday, David shared a sweet clip of him dancing with Victoria during her premiere after-party.

The pair looked more in love than ever as they danced away to Whitney Houston's hit song How Will I Know.
Alongside the post, he wrote: 'I love you Mrs Beckham for many reasons, for being my wife, for giving me 4 beautiful children, for making my vitamins each day & for bringing your story to life.'
He added: 'I'm very proud of the journey you have been on and continue to go on and to show people the struggles that helped get you here... you should be very proud.
'And for the record you can make a Ham&Cheese sandwich very well. We love you x @victoriabeckham.'
By their parents' side at the event were the couple's sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz the latter's girlfriend Jackie, and daughter Harper, for the celebration at London's Curzon Mayfair cinema.
And after the premiere to end all premieres it was only right that a lavish after-party might follow at exclusive members' club.
But it was yet another poignant moment and perhaps a painful reminder that things have changed for the Beckham gang.

However, eldest son Brooklyn was thousands of miles away in Beverly Hills with his wife, Nicola Peltz amid the family feud
For it was just over two years ago that Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz were in attendance for the premiere of David's show, Beckham, which was held at the same venue.
While Victoria and her husband have reconciled that they won't see their eldest son for the foreseeable future, he and Nicola are 'always missed' at family gatherings following the fall-out which came to a head when the pair shunned all of David's 50th birthday celebrations.
Speaking at the premiere, Victoria thanked Brooklyn, along with her other children, for their support.
Paying tribute she said thanks 'to my husband for convincing me and forcing me – giving me no choice, David.
'My children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, Harper and David. Oh no, he's not a child. It has taken this process to realise I am enough.'
She added: 'This process really forced me to reflect on my journey and it has been emotional. It's been a year of intense therapy and it really made me realise a lot.
I want to thank my mum and dad, my brother and my sister. I'd like to thank the Spice Girls, I love you.'
Despite Brooklyn's absence, it was a night of delight for Victoria, who was dressed in a gown from her own collection – because there was a mini Spice Girls reunion which was only incomplete because Mel Brown is currently away on business in the US.
She did, however, send Victoria flowers to wish her luck for her big night yesterday. There, though, were Geri Halliwell-Horner, Emma Bunton and Melanie Chisholm.
A source close to Victoria said: 'Victoria is so happy that the Spice Girls could be there. She just loves being with them so much.
'They are a huge part of her journey and they are featured a lot in the documentary. It was a shame that Mel B wasn't there but she was away, and on this occasion nobody was not there because of any in-fighting.'
Also there for the knees-up, which began with a champagne reception in the iconic cinema, were Victoria's parents Jackie and Tony Adams, as well as her sister Louise and her children.
