LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Patrick Swayze appeared in good spirits as the actor caught game 2 of the NBA Western Conference basketball finals on Friday.

Swayze, who has been battling pancreatic cancer, attended the match, which pitted the Los Angeles Lakers against the San Antonio Spurs, with his wife, Lisa Niemi.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, earlier this week Swayze took a plane to an undisclosed location for more treatment in his battle against pancreatic cancer.

The "Dirty Dancing" star is battling the disease, first revealed in March.

Swayze wasn't the only celebrity in attendance at the game though. Eva Longoria Parker turned up to support her husband, Spurs player Tony Parker. David and Victoria Beckham cheered the Lakers on as did Sylvester Stallone.
