Carl Jenkinson may be a West Ham United player, but the defender is still a hit with his former Arsenal team-mates.

The England Under-21 international joined Arsenal trio Calum Chambers, Olivier Giroud and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain at The O2 on Thursday night.

The Premier League stars appeared to enjoy watching the Toronto Raptors ease to a 106-103 victory over the Orlando Magic in the English capital.

Arsenal missed the chance to cement their lead at the top of the Premier League table following a 3-3 draw with Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday.
