Jason Bateman showed that love of basketball runs in the family as he shared a joke with his daughter Francesca Nora during an LA Lakers game on Tuesday night.
The Ozark actor, 56, looked laid back in a navy jumper and mid-blue jeans as he took in the action at the match against Washington Wizards at the Cyrpto.com Arena.
He kept warm with a padded jacket with sweater sleeves and added a pair of white and slate Nike trainers.
Francesca, 18, was gripped by the sporting drama as she wore a navy hoodie and light blue rolled-up jeans.
The teenager completed the look with white socks and beige slippers and could be seen eating some fried food and hugging her father while sitting in the courtside seats.
American comedian Ray Romano, sporting a grey jacket over a white T-shirt, was also present at the match and sat next to Canadian TV star Drew Scott, who wore a brown cardigan on top of a white polo.

Selling Sunset star Jason Oppenheim could be seen donning a white short-sleeve v-neck as he sipped from movie producer Jessica Vargas’s drinks cup.
Ocean’s Eleven star Andy Garcia, meanwhile, wore a denim jacket and stand-up comic Cedric the Entertainer sported a black Fila zip-up shellsuit during the Lakers’ comfortable 111-88 win over the Wizards.
New-York born Jason returned to LA earlier this month after joining old pal Jennifer Aniston on her annual trip to Cabo San Lucas for the new year.
The actor was part of a substantial group who were part of her vacation to the Mexican city.
Jason has been married to his wife Amanda Anka since 2001 and the pair have two daughters together – Francesca and Maple, 12.
Meanwhile Jennifer has been married twice, first to Brad Pitt from 2000 until he left her for Angelina Jolie in 2005, then to Justin Theroux from 2015 up to their split in 2017.
Jason and Amanda were among only 70 select guests invited to Jennifer and Justin’s secret wedding at their Bel Air home.
The Arrested Development star and his wife were also part of the even smaller group of intimates who joined the couple on their honeymoon to Bora Bora.

Jennifer and Jason enjoy a long professional bond, having worked together in five movies going back to the 2006 film The Break Up also starring Vince Vaughn.
They have since co-starred in The Switch in 2010, Horrible Bosses in 2011, Horrible Bosses 2 in 2014 and finally Office Christmas Party in 2016.
‘We’ve always just really gotten along well,’ Jason told the Guardian in 2011. ‘I think I was just fortunate to be a good fit for parts in her films.’
Jason’s new film Carry-On, a Christmas heart-warmer about a blackmailed airline security gurard, topped the Netflix ratings after its December 13 debut despite sparking disbelief from those who work on planes in real life.
One unidentified flight attendant claimed he would tell fliers to get out of the galley if he saw them there after watching Jason’s character enter the area amid the drama.
He also questioned the position of the plane’s cargo hatch – a door providing access to anyone loading or unloading baggage.
Despite the film’s 87 percent score on the Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) spokesperson Jessica Mayle agreed that many of the Carry-On scenes were unrealistic.
Ozark’s Jason Bateman, 56, and his daughter Francesca Nora, 18, were all smiles as they led the stars at the LA Lakers game last night. The father-daughter duo shared a light-hearted moment, cracking jokes and enjoying each other’s company as they cheered on their favorite team.Bateman, known for his role as Marty Byrde in the hit Netflix series Ozark, looked dapper in a sharp suit, while Francesca rocked a trendy Lakers jersey. The pair were spotted laughing and chatting throughout the game, clearly enjoying their night out together.
It’s heartwarming to see a Hollywood star like Bateman take the time to bond with his daughter and share special moments like this. Their close relationship was evident as they shared a joke and cheered on the Lakers together.
As they left the game, Bateman and Francesca were all smiles, proving that family time is always a slam dunk. It’s great to see the actor taking a break from his busy schedule to spend quality time with his daughter and create lasting memories together.

The Trump administration’s Day 1 executive actions governing federal workforce issues could collectively kickstart the new president’s efforts to politicize the nonpartisan civil service, beginning with a potential “mass layoff” of recent agency hires, good government experts said Tuesday.
As part of a tranche of executive actions either setting new policy or revoking Biden-era initiatives issued upon his inauguration Monday, President Trump revived Schedule F, albeit under a slightly different moniker—Schedule Policy/Career. Like the first iteration of the policy, unveiled in October 2020 but never implemented, it aims to reclassify tens of thousands of federal workers in so-called “policy-related” positions out of the competitive service, stripping them of their civil service protections and making them effectively at-will employees.
There are some changes from the original Schedule F executive order: first, it strips much of the language regarding exempting Schedule F positions from the competitive hiring process. And in various places it moves the final decision-making authority for conversion of jobs into the new job classification to the president, rather than the Office of Personnel Management director, likely in an effort to make it easier to ward off legal challenges.
The National Treasury Employees Union has already filed a lawsuit seeking to block the Trump administration from moving forward with implementing Schedule F, arguing that when Congress passed the 1978 Civil Service Reform Act, it defined “policy-related” positions specifically as political appointees, not career workers, and that excepted service job schedules should be “narrowly defined.”
“Congress has enacted comprehensive legislation governing the hiring and employment of federal employees,” the union wrote. “When establishing hiring principles, Congress determined that most federal government jobs be in the merit-based, competitive service. And it established that most federal employees have due process rights if their agency employer wants to remove them from employment. Because the Policy/Career executive order attempts to divest federal employees of these due process rights, it is contrary to congressional intent.”
Replacing the original Schedule F’s hiring process changes is a new executive order entitled Reforming the Federal Hiring Process and Restoring Merit to Government Service. Max Stier, president of the Partnership for Public Service, positively cited the measure, which tasks officials with developing a hiring action plan to reduce the time it takes to hire new federal employees, better communicate with job applicants throughout the process and better incorporate technology into the hiring and selection process.
“I think there’s clearly been a lot of work and thought done here at the end of the day,” he said. “The fact is there are some things that we think are quite positive, like the proposed reform of the hiring process, which is indeed quite broken.”
But Don Kettl, professor emeritus at the University of Maryland and former dean of its School of Public Policy, warned that there are worrying passages within that order as well. In addition to language denigrating concepts like equity and gender identity, it calls for ensuring federal jobseekers “faithfully serve the executive branch,” in addition to the existing oath to defend the Constitution.
“It’s a loyalty test, to both the administration and to its values,” Kettl said. “It’s an opportunity in the screening process to ensure that the people hired are aligned with what they want to advance, an effort to transform government to match Trump’s basic values from the very start.”
Jacque Simon, policy director for the American Federation of Government Employees, said that her union is always opposed to efforts to make the hiring process “more subjective.”
“If you look at the language of this hiring executive order, where they’re talking about making sure you only hire Americans ‘dedicated to . . . ideals and values,’ you have to wonder how that’s going to be measured and assessed,” she said. “In the competitive service, objective criteria are supposed to be the only factors considered, and it sounds like these are very subjective matters, which opens the system up to discrimination.”
Another troubling development came in the form of a Monday night memo from Acting OPM Director Charles Ezell, which calls on agencies to submit a complete list of employees still within their one-year probationary periods by Friday. It also stresses that probationary employees lack appeal rights before the Merit System Protection Board and encourages agencies to use paid administrative leave to send employees home while they consider restructuring offices and components.
Kevin Owen, a partner at the law firm Gilbert Employment Law, said he took OPM’s memo as a signal that the administration may seek to use probationary employees as a way to fulfill Trump and his confidant Elon Musk’s promise of “mass layoffs” of federal workers.
“I think that is a precursor to their pledge to reduce the size of the federal government, and an easy target to make those reductions are the people with no rights and who were hired by the last guy,” Owen said. “[And] I think it sets a precedent that will allow future administrations to do the same going forward. That may invite Congress to step in and change that rule in the future—not this Congress, but a future one—because this will start to encroach more and more into a spoils system as time goes on.”
And Ron Sanders, a former chairman of the Federal Salary Council who resigned his post in 2020 after Trump unveiled the first iteration of Schedule F, described the OPM memo as the first in a pair of shoes to drop.
“The second shoe is that once those lists are in place, those probationary workers are at risk,” he said.
In recent news, a pair of executive orders and a memo has been brought to light that could potentially fast track the politicization of the civil service. These actions, taken by the current administration, have raised concerns about the impartiality and professionalism of government employees.The first executive order, signed by the President, aims to make it easier to remove federal employees who are deemed to be disloyal or underperforming. This order has sparked fear among civil servants, who worry that their job security may be at risk if they are not seen as supportive of the administration’s agenda.
The second executive order establishes a new schedule for federal employees’ pay, which could potentially lead to political appointees being paid more than career civil servants. This has raised questions about the fairness and equity of the new pay scale, as well as concerns about the potential for favoritism and cronyism within the civil service.
Additionally, a memo issued by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has instructed federal agencies to prioritize loyalty and political beliefs when hiring new employees. This directive has further fueled concerns about the politicization of the civil service, as hiring decisions should be based on qualifications and merit, rather than political ideology.
Overall, these actions have the potential to undermine the professionalism and impartiality of the civil service, which plays a crucial role in upholding the rule of law and serving the American people. It is essential that we remain vigilant and advocate for a civil service that is free from political interference and dedicated to serving the public good.
