VIDEO: Rihanna Appears to Be Giving Lakers' Alex Caruso 'the Look' and Fans Freaked Out

Pop music icon Rihanna is renowned for appearing at highly-profiled NBA games. In fact, it would probably be fair to call her a regular at these contests. Well, Rihanna lived up to that billing, as she was in the house at the Staples Center for the Lakers-Jazz showdown on Friday night, and she made a small-scale gesture in the direction of Alex Caruso that had basketball fans losing their minds. Folks, it appears that RiRi gave the Lakers guard "the eyes" as he walked past her seats near LA's bench.

That's about 10 consecutive seconds of Rihanna gawking at Caruso, but given his legend status in La La Land, would it really be a risk?

It's certainly a valid question, but we'll let Rihanna herself answer that one, because, when you think about it, you really can't blame her for staring.

And if Caruso isn't able to muster the guts to go up and talk to the eight-time Grammy Award winner, if they were to ever meet in person, you can bet your bottom dollar that the big fellas on the Lakers will carry him to her.

The NBA is BACK, ladies and gents, and it might just be better than ever.
