As usual, the event was full of glamorous celebrities and all the razzle-dazzle in West Hollywood. Basketball superstars like Russell Westbrook and LeBron James also graced the occasion.
However, a seemingly innocent interaction between Russell Westbrook and Queen James, Savannah, prompted some wild reactions from fans. The moment captured by the frame of the picture displayed Westbrook and Savannah in a kind of an awkward pose.

They are both family man. So far we have never heard a beep when it comes to question their marriages. They both committed to their HS/college girls. Tjey honored them, they didnt leave them when they got money and they keep a tight ship with kids. Nothing else to ask for.
