The “Deep Water” actor and his 12-year-old son sat courtside as they watched the Los Angeles Lakers play against the Toronto Raptors.

On November 10, 2024, Affleck and his son Samuel were spotted wearing matching Nike sneakers at the basketball game. Affleck added a casual outfit to his look, rocking a gray coat, khaki button-down shirt, and gray jeans while Samuel was in all black.

Affleck, who is currently dealing with his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, is also a dad to Violet and Seraphina Affleck, whom he shares with Garner. Fans, excited to see Samuel and Affleck hanging out, pointed out the strong resemblance between the young boy and Jennifer Garner.

“Jennifer Garner stole all the genes,” one fan remarked, while another added, “He is his mother’s TWIN!” “Her mini me [sic] for sure,” a fan concurred, impressed by the striking likeness. “Samuel looks like his Mom,” a user echoed other fans’ sentiments.

“All those kids look so much like Mommy ❤️,” more fans shared, with another agreeing, “He looks more like this mom! Strong resemblance.”

Others were quick to point out the family’s traits and the fact that Garner and Affleck divorced, “All of those kids have their mama’s joyful smile. He seriously messed up losing her.”

Compliments also poured in about Affleck’s son’s good looks, “Handsome young boy!! Watch out girlies!!😍,” and another simply wrote, “He is so cute.” Lastly, a fan couldn’t help but admire their footwear, commenting, “Love their matching shoes!”

This isn’t the first time this month that Ben Affleck has taken time to bond with his son. On November 1, 2024, Affleck was seen in Los Angeles on a shopping trip with Samuel. Netizens who viewed images and footage of the young boy had plenty to say.

Paparazzi captured photos and videos of Affleck bonding with his son. The pair were filmed while walking, at one point with the actor’s arm around his son’s shoulders, during a shopping trip at BAPE, an upscale boutique. Images also showed close-ups of Samuel after he and his father visited another store.

One social media user who saw some of the images focused on Samuel’s looks, saying, “Isn’t Samuel is the most good looking male star kid😍😍😍😍. [sic]” Another person commented, “Lil Sam he’s so cute 🥰.”

Focusing on the father-son duo, a third Instagram user remarked, “They are so cute👨‍👦❤️.” A YouTube user described the outing as “Father and son time,” while another person, touched by Affleck’s bonding gesture, called him “[A] great actor and father.”

Commenting on the actor’s appearance, another YouTuber described him as “handsome Ben.” Yet, another viewer remarked, “He seems to be seething with anger.” Laughing, one Instagram user noted, “Paparazzi get on ben nerves. [sic]”

Another individual observed, “He looks frustrated as usual.” On X, someone shared images of the actor inside the BAPE store in Melrose, where he and Samuel were seen browsing the clothing racks.

For the outing, the “Batman” star wore a cream-colored button-up shirt, black jeans, and complementary Nike sneakers. His sneakers, the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Zion Williamson Voodoo, cost over $430. He also sported a full beard.

Samuel matched his father in a white Nike Sportswear Club men’s T-shirt, priced at around $30. He paired it with blue jeans and completed his look with $1,727 Nike x Travis Scott SB Dunk Low sneakers.

Besides Samuel, Affleck has also been previously spotted with his other kids. In July 2023, like her younger brother, Violet spent time shopping in the Hamptons with her father and his ex-wife, Lopez.

The previous week, the eldest Affleck child went shopping in Los Angeles with her mother. The pair dressed casually, with the actress wearing a black sweater top and matching biker shorts.

Her daughter opted for a polka dot maxi dress, and both chose comfortable sneakers. Affleck’s eldest was later spotted alongside him, resembling her mother closely, during the 2023 Hamptons Fourth of July celebration hosted by Michael Rubin.

The 18-year-old appeared in images posted on Instagram by the billionaire entrepreneur. At that event, the father-daughter duo was joined once again by Lopez. Observing her resemblance to her mother, an X user noted, “She looks so much like her mom,” while another commented, “Violet looks so much like her mom.”

Agreeing with the previous remarks, someone else added, “Unrelated sort of, but isn’t she so much like her mother!”

For the All-White party, Violet wore a face mask and a lovely white outfit, featuring a white halter maxi dress, tan sandals, and clear-framed glasses, with her hair styled in pigtails. Affleck sported a white T-shirt, cream linen blazer, white pants, and matching Nike sneakers.

His ex-wife wore a white gown with a bow detail and a waist cutout. As Affleck’s children continue toward adulthood, they are likely to make more public and red-carpet appearances, which will thrill fans. all
