Patrick Swayze defied reports he’s close to death by appearing happy and healthy at a Los Angeles Lakers play-off game on Friday night.
The Ghost star, who has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, joined celebrity basketball fans including Jack Nicholson, Tobey Maguire, David and Victoria Beckham, Eva Longoria Parker and Sylvester Stallone at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Cheering on the Lakers against the San Antonio Spurs, smiling Swayze was spotted in the crowd with his wife Lisa Niemi.
And his presence seemed to give the Lakers the life they needed – the team hammered the Spurs 101-71 to go up 2-0 in the Western Conference basketball final series.

Patrick Swayze has been given a lifeline in his desperate battle with pancreatic cancer – three top doctors have offered to cure him using revolutionary new treatments.
The Ghost star revealed he was fighting the killer disease earlier this year after his secret health crisis was revealed by a U.S. tabloid.
And now three cancer experts have come forward with nearmiracle cures they’re urging the 55-year-old to try.
In a world exclusive article for America’s Globe, Dr. Howard May, Robert Krupa and Dr. Jim Howenstine insist they have the tools to help Swayze beat cancer.
Dr. May says, “I can cure Patrick Swayze.”
The National Health Director of the Phillipines Church of God insists he’s living proof that his `Zapper’ device, which boosts the body’s immune system and kills pathogens and parasites that cause cancer, really works – it cured him of colon cancer.
He explains, “I’m 86 and in better health now than I was when I was supposed to die within six months.”
Krupa also tells the publication he can cure Swayze with his invention, the Rife machine, which uses electromagnetic energy to cancel out cancer.
He states, “He’ll (Swayze) know from hour one that something good is happening to his body. He’ll suddenly be full of energy.”
And internist Dr. Howenstine insists the secret to Swayze’s cancer cure lies in a powerful antioxidant called Coenzyme Q10. ‘

A non-denominational U.S. religious group has crafted a special new prayer for cancer victim Patrick Swayze.
Just a week after it was revealed the Ghost star has put all of his real estate into a living trust – as he continues to battle pancreatic cancer – elders at the Hollywood Prayer Network have created a special prayer just for him.
The HPN’s founding director Karen Covell tells the Globe she sent Swayze a Bible last month in an effort to bring the ailing actor “comfort and strength”.
She says, “We know he is a spiritual man, and our organisation is dedicated as a ministry for the entertainment industry.”
The network’s Swayze prayer, obtained by the Globe, begins, “Dear Lord, I lift up Patrick Swayze to you right now. He is a dear man… and a brilliant talent who has blessed his audiences across the globe for decades with his many gifts.”
The prayer continues, “I ask that You now put Your Divine arms around him as he walks through this battle with pancreatic cancer. May You give him strength, peace and joy.”
The tabloid’s editors are asking faithful readers to recite the lengthy prayer in the hope of helping Swayze fight and win his dire cancer fight.

Patrick Swayze has been granted special permission to use a NASA airstrip in California, so he can fly himself to hospital for cancer treatment.
Moffett Federal Airfield near San Francisco is designated for government use only and is totally closed to civilians – but the actor and flying fanatic has reportedly been using the runway to jet between his home in southern California and Stanford University Medical Center.
A source tells Florida’s Palm Beach Post newspaper Swayze is using the ex-navy base to avoid the paparazzi when he makes bi-monthly trips for chemotherapy.
The Dirty Dancing star was earlier this year diagnosed with deadly pancreatic cancer, but his wife Lisa Niemi this week revealed the 55-year-old is responding well to radical treatment doctors hope will save his life.
She said, “We’re thrilled and grateful for the positive response Patrick has shown towards his treatment.
“We can’t help but feel that all the prayers, meditations and good thoughts sent his way by everyone has made a difference.”

Patrick Swayze has had an “excellent” response to treatment for pancreatic cancer, the actor and his doctor said Tuesday.
“We’re thrilled and grateful for the positive response Patrick has shown towards his treatment,” the Dirty Dancing star and wife Lisa Niemi tell PEOPLE.
“Also, we can’t help but feel that all the prayers, meditations and good thoughts sent his way by everyone has made a difference. Thank you!” said the couple.
His physician, Dr. George Fisher, added: “Patrick Swayze continues to respond well to his treatment for pancreatic cancer. Because of his excellent response, he will continue the same therapy at Stanford.”
Swayze, 55, announced last month he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, one of the most serious of the cancers. He has been undergoing chemotherapy but not radiation treatment, according to his rep.
