LeBron James, his wife Savannah James, and their daughter Zhuri were at the Galen Center yesterday to watch Bronny James. The younger James’ USC Trojans hosted the Arizona Wildcats in an action-packed encounter that lived up to the hype. While the end-to-end battle occurred on the court, some eyes were focused on the LA Lakers superstar.
One photo that went viral on social media showed Savannah with a slightly strained facial expression. Basketball fans pointed out that on Friday, James had a friendly interaction with Linda Rambis and Jeanie Buss, speculating that it could have been the reason for Savannah's expression.
“Savanna looks like she’s still thinking about that video.”

LeBron James will be on the court for Sunday’s showdown between Lakers and Timberwolves
The LA Lakers cap off a six-game homestand with a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. LeBron James, who has been a staple in the injury report, has been upgraded to available. He was closely monitored by the training staff as he warmed up before he was cleared to play.
A win for the 35-30 Lakers will move them closer to a guaranteed playoff spot. They are trying to chase down the Phoenix Suns (37-27) for a final postseason berth. LA is only 2.5 games behind Phoenix.
The Lakers have been adamant that they wouldn't mind fighting for a postseason ticket from the play-in tournament. But with James battling a foot injury, the team would prefer playing as few games as possible.
