“I couldn’t be more proud”: How Savannah stood by LeBron through it all

LeBron James has spent more than two decades dealing with the pressure that comes with being one of basketball’s biggest stars. He entered the NBA as the No. 1 pick in 2003 and quickly became the face of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Since then, he has won four championships, four MVP awards and become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. Through the biggest wins and the hardest stretches of his career, Savannah James has remained close to him while raising their three children and building her own career.Savannah has seen LeBron’s career from a much more personal distance than most people ever could. She was with him when he was a young player in Cleveland, when his move to Miami brought intense criticism and when he returned home with a promise to win a championship.
