LeBron James and Savannah James’ history dates back to their high school years.? While Lebron played on the high school basketball team, Savannah had her own niche. She was a cheerleader and also played softball. LeBron was instantly smitten by her. However, the same cannot be said for Savannah.

Savannah initially showed no interest in the King. LeBron, however, even went to the extent of asking a mutual friend for Savannah’s number. While Savannah did not hand hers out, she noted down LeBron’s number. The young prodigy even invited her to watch him play. And it was only after watching him play that Savannah started showing interest in LeBron.

In a recent interview with The Cut, Savannah James revealed her ‘Oh Sh*t’ moment with her husband.
