LeBron James lauds his wife Savannah James for her unwavering support
LeBron James opened up about his wife Savannah's support and the sacrifices she made in a segment of Netflix's 'Starting 5' documentary. While crediting her as the "real MVP," James said that he was as great as he is because of his wife.
"Savannah has allowed me to basically be as great as I wanted to be with my career and my journey because she knew I wanted to be the greatest of all-time," the Lakers legend said. "Savannah allowed me to do that by basically saying, 'I got this at the house. Don’t worry about it. I got it'".
