According to Savannah James, she used to get into a lot of confrontations with other females in high school because they were envious of her relationship with LeBron.
Speaking on Tuesday’s episode of “Everybody’s Crаzy,” which she co-hosts with April Daniels, the NBA WAG acknowledged that she frequently engaged in “girl figҺting” when she was a teenager in Akron, Ohio, the city where she first met her future husband, the Los Angeles Lakers player.
She continued by making it clear that although she didn’t want to face her peers, she was forced to.
“I needed to protect myself,” Savannah replied. I had a great deal of it. I had girls that didn’t like me, and I was unable to figure out why.
Daniels said, “I would hate you too if your boyfriend was LeBron James,” implying that other girls’ arguments were motivated by jealously. Not really, though. I wouldn’t hate you at all. However, I feel that yeah. They were upset with you because they were thinking, “Why couldn’t it be me?” There should be no figҺting among young ladies.
David Fizdale, a favourite of LeBron James, has re-signed with the Suns as an assistant coach despite rumours that Phoenix wants to entice the four-time MVP by selecting his son Bronny.
“I feel like I was just my friends’ ally in a lot of the figҺts I had,” she remarked. Since I was kind, I don’t think I truly engaged in a figҺt that was mine. I think I got along well with most people.
When they initially met and began dating in 2002, Savannah was a sophomore at Buchtel High School at the age of sixteen, and LeBron was a junior at St. Vincent-St. Mary, a close rival school, at the age of seventeen.
A few weeks later, LeBron took her out for their first date at Outback Steakhouse after inviting her to one of his basketball games, according to Basketball Network.
When LeBron was a Miami Heat player, the couple were married in 2013. The nuptials took place in San Diego, California.
Before their second son, Bryce, was born in 2007, LeBron and Savannah welcomed their first kid, NBA prоspect Bronny, in 2004. Zhuri, the couple’s nine-year-old daughter, is also alive.
At the 2024 NBA Draft Combine in May, Bronny, the eldest son of James, made an impression on scouts.
Though Bronny only averaged 4.8 points per game in his one and only season of college basketball with the USC Trojans, he made an impression in May during the 2024 NBA Draft Combine in Chicago. Scouts were impressed by him in a number of areas, but he really stood out in the shooting drills where he made 19 of 25 shots from behind the arc, good for second place overall.
Given that LeBron has a player option this summer and might choose to leave his 99 million dollar, two-year contract with the franchise, it is thought that the Lakers would be interested in picking the 19-year-old guard if doing so means signing his father to a max agreement.
If it means getting their father to play for them, other teams, including the Phoenix Suns, are in the running to draft Bronny. LeBron has expressed his wish to play with his oldest son on numerous occasions in the past.
However, as the 2023–24 season approached, the four-time NBA champion refuted reports that he plans to follow his son, declaring before a Lakers game in April that “Bronny’s his own man.” Rich Paul, LeBron’s agent, has also refuted the rumours.
Regarding Bronny and his basketball future, LeBron said two months ago, “He’s going to make his own decision and as a family, we are going to support any decision he decides to make.”
