Darren Bent wasn't happy when he saw Chelsea rival Didier Drogba at last night's NBA exhibition match between the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Timberwolves at London's O2 Arena.

Both Premier League sharpshooters had turned up to the star-studded bash dressed in the same stylish parka coats.

"I bought this in a shop in Chelsea but I'm not happy to see Didier wearing something very similar," the Spurs forward admitted.

Bent revealed he is a big basketball fan but doesn't follow the Phoenix Suns, who boast double NBA MVP and lifelong Tottenham fan Steve Nash in their ranks.

"It's the first basketball game I have been to but my favourite player is LeBron James and I follow his team the Cleveland Cavaliers," the England striker added.

Big bakestball fans: Didier Drogba and Lewis Hamilton

Drogba chatted to Celtics star Kevin Garnett on the court after Boston's 92-81 victory over the Timberwolves in front of a cpacity 20,000 crowd.

And other Premier League stars at the game included West Ham trio Anton Ferdiannd - a regular at London Leopards games - Hayden Mullins and Carlton Cole.

Former Hammers midifelder Nigel Reo-Coker was also at the game with Arsenal striker Theo Walcott while Formula One star Lewis Hamilton took a seat courtside.

McLaren's rookie sensation admitted he loves relaxing by watching basketball and added: "I'm a big fan of the NBA but if I'm honest I'm a bit of a New York Knicks fan."
