It has been discovered that LeBron James is sleeping with his newest teammate’s mom

Savannah James responded to the tweet on her Instagram Story with the emoji of a hand over the mouth (perhaps conveying surprise or shock) and the laughing crying emoji.
Of course, if you’ve kept apprised of the 2024 NBA Draft, then you know Cheah’s tweet is a joke—and he’s referring to Bronny James now being a Los Angeles Laker. The 19-year-old was selected by the team during the draft on Thursday. He’ll play alongside his father LeBron in the upcoming season, making them the first father-son duo in NBA history to play simultaneously.
LeBron celebrated the moment on IG with a series of photos of him and his eldest son, alongside the caption, “LEGACY!!!!!!” A viral clip of the former USC guard shows him becoming emotional when he found out the news with an intimate gathering of family and friends.
Recently, Savannah James, shared a nostalgic image of her son with his father LeBron, right after Bronny was selected by the Lakers and posted it all over social media. In the picture LeBron James is holding Bronny James as a baby, at the time the ‘King’ was playing in Cleveland with the Cavaliers.
Savannah posted the teary-eye emojis, very emotional after the news, and in the past, LeBron James has mentioned that his wife has been the rock in the James family for years, so it is understandable the fact that this was a very emotional moment for her.
He said she’s been the most important factor in holding the family together, especially with so much pressure and attention toward the James name. Even if Bronny’s selection has been criticized for not being a player to use a second rounder, he has overcome all kinds of problems to get here including cardiac arrest. Many people believe it is only a matter of time for him to be a factor in Los Angeles.
