The legendary LeBron James is getting ready to add another Olympic gold medal to his already illustrious career. In an exhibition match between Team USA and Team Canada, the Los Angeles Lakers point forward will take part in the Paris 2024 Olympics. As someone who has strong family values, he has always been there for his son Bronny, even when he was criticized recently. In addition to this, he is also a caring husband to his wife, Savannah James.
News broke today that James has received the green light from his wife, Savannah, to chase his dream of playing for Team USA at the upcoming Paris Olympics. A recent report by ESPN’s Tim Bontemps on X shared that “LeBron James said once he got clearance from his wife to give up his summer to play for Team USA, he was all in on the experience.“
Athletes’ wives frequently want them to spend more time with family as they age, but Savannah James always backed LeBron’s sports affection. Because of her constant encouragement, he can keep playing even at this age without fear. The 2012 Olympics were his last competition with Team USA, and they took home the gold.
Some may question on Los Angeles Lakers’ forward’s ability to compete at the Olympic level again at the age of 39, but his enthusiasm for serving his nation and the support of his wife has put those doubts to rest.

Reflecting on their married life, she added, “LeBron and I were together for 10 years before we got married, and I would say, for me, the biggest thing that I felt was just a sense of security. Like I felt like we had kids together already. I don’t know but it was it was just more of a feeling.”
Even though they both have busy schedules, the pair clearly prioritizes their relationship. The conversation makes it clear that Savannah thinks it’s very important for husbands and wives to have a young and vibrant connection.
