Britney Spears has been linked to a young basketball player after becoming a big fan of the sport.

The newly divorced star last year admitted to having a crush on Lakers player Luke Walton, so perhaps the bewigged Britney had her eye on one player in particular?

Or maybe she just wanted to watch a game of basketball?
