LeBron James ’ 22nd NBA season may have ended sooner than hoped, but the Los Angeles Lakers superstar isn’t dwelling on defeat. With the playoffs now behind him, LeBron has shifted his attention to what truly lights him up—his family. As the 2025 Met Gala approaches in New York, LeBron is stepping into the fashion spotlight in a new way, proudly cheering on his wife, Savannah James , who’s already turning heads with a show-stopping pre-Gala look.

From courtside cheers to steadfast support: Savannah and LeBron James prove that true love is about always showing upThe Los Angeles Lakers' postseason hopes were officially dashed on Wednesday, April 30. Facing the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series, LeBron James delivered a solid performance, finishing with 22 points, seven rebounds, and six assists. But his efforts fell short as the Timberwolves sealed the series 4–1 with a 103–96 victory, powered by Rudy Gobert and Julius Randle, who combined for a dominant 50 points and 29 rebounds.

The Lakers had a disappointing finish, managing to win only Game 2 before losing the next three in a row. For LeBron, it marked another early exit—but instead of lamenting the loss, he’s embracing the offseason with purpose.


Now back in full family mode, LeBron’s attention has turned to the fashion world, where he’s taking on a new role as one of the honorary chairs of the 2025 Met Gala, scheduled for Monday, May 5, in New York City. But it’s his wife, Savannah, who’s already commanding the spotlight.


On Saturday, May 3, Savannah James teased fans on Instagram with a sneak peek of her Met Gala style. Posing in a deep burgundy velvet suit with a plunging neckline and tailored trousers, she captioned the post, “A lil pre Met Gala pop out.” The bold yet elegant look quickly caught fire online, and LeBron’s reaction said it all.


Rather than using words, the NBA icon flooded her comments with fire and drooling face emojis, a simple but loud show of appreciation. Fans quickly took notice of his support, with many applauding the couple’s chemistry and Savannah’s glowing presence.

While LeBron didn’t give a formal statement, his emojis made waves. On a platform where celebrities carefully curate their public persona, the unscripted gesture showed his authentic pride.
