Basketball wife and new podcaster Savannah James has gone viral after she and her husband 20-time All-Star baller LeBron James were playing around on social media.
The two created a slight buzz after the Lakers beat the Denver Nuggets in Game 4 of their playoff series. The Ohio native, who is the first player to pass 39,000 and 40,000 regular-season points in the NBA, hopped on to encourage his fans to tune in to her show.
The couple’s chemistry leaped off the screen even on Instagram Live. King James hit his wife of 11 years up on the social media platform as she was preparing to film an episode of her new podcast “Everybody’s Crazy.”
The L.A. Lakers forward said he wanted to get on the Live, joking, “I’m crazy too,” playing on the show’s name.
As Savannah giggles with her friend, she asked James if he remembered that he was supposed to be calling in to the show.
Casually, he answered, saying, “Well, I seen y’all went live, so I just, you know, took a chance to see if I can get on live.”
Someone recorded it!! They’re sooo cute 😩😂😂 https://t.co/tHUzfS1xtd pic.twitter.com/jldRDpJoa6

The couple’s smiles covered their face as they looked at each other, and their playful nature could be seen when the conversation shifted to James’ hairline.
“Why I can’t see my hairline?” No. 23 said to his wife, smoothing down his hair.
Savannah quickly clapped back, “I don’t know about that, bro.”
Fans immediately caught the quick jab.
“LeBron catching hairline strays from Savannah is hilarious,” one person posted.
Another person said, “I want my wife to support my receding hairline the they Savannah does LeBron.” A third added, “If she loved him she’d tell him the truth about his hair.”
People have been talking about the athlete’s hairline and crown for years.
Ten years ago, one X user wrote, “Lebron been stealing Savannah’s prenatal vitamins. My man got his hairline back.”
In 2017, GQ.com ran an article titled “LeBron James Finally Surrendered to His Hairline,” when he decided to cut his hair down low.
However, then his hair started to miraculously grow again. But since then it seemed to fall out during a game against the Utah Jazz in 2019. Clips from the sideline show his teammate Anthony Davis trying to tell him that something is going on with his hair — in the middle of the game.
