Novak Djokovic had a free Friday night in Athens, and he spent it courtside with his son.

The tennis great was at Sunel Arena in Ano Liosia on November 6, 2026, to watch Olympiacos host Red Star Belgrade in the EuroLeague, SKAI and Gazzetta reported. His son Stefan was right beside him, Parapolitika noted.

According to Mondo, father and son watched from the front row. The Serbian outlet said Djokovic headed to the arena soon after getting back to his Athens home from Paris.

He did not slip in quietly. Before tip-off he walked onto the court and posed for photos with Olympiacos owners Panagiotis and Giorgos Angelopoulos, SKAI reported.

The arena announcer welcomed him over the speakers, his picture went up on the big screen, and the home crowd gave him a warm round of applause, according to Parapolitika.

It was an easy pick for a night out. Djokovic is a lifelong Red Star fan, and Telegraf added a family twist: Stefan supports Belgrade rivals Partizan, and the two often go to Partizan games together.

He has a soft spot for the hosts too. Since moving to Greece, Djokovic has become a regular at Olympiacos games whenever his schedule allows, Enikos and Gazzetta reported.

Even the venue was a change of scenery. Olympiacos are playing their home games at Sunel Arena while major works go on at their usual arena in Piraeus, Mondo explained.

Mondo also noted that his tennis season wrapped up earlier than he had hoped this autumn. That could mean a lot more basketball nights in Athens for Novak and Stefan this winter.
