The 40-year-old finished the 2024-25 playoff season with 25.4 points and 9 rebounds per game. At the same time, his wife is making headlines of her own.

At the beginning of May, LeBron missed New York’s hottest fashion moment, aka the Met Gala, because of a knee injury. Mrs. Savannah James, on the other hand, flew solo in a Hanifa gown. Well, for an icon like Savannah, setting the stage on fire for just one night isn’t enough. Later, the couple attended the Hammer Museum Gala. While undoubtedly LeBron is the star, Savannah took the internet by storm. Wearing a black, semi-sheer Miyake number, she became the gala.
