It was date night in Los Angeles for LeBron and Savannah James on Friday as they made a striking appearance at the Los Angeles Dodgers‘ crucial Game 5 playoff matchup against the San Diego Padres.

The video captured the couple in their suite, causing plenty of social media attention with LeBron playfully doing the “crown” gesture over Savannah’s head, creating a heartwarming moment between the two.

In less than two weeks, LeBron James is set to embark on his 22nd NBA season, making history as he takes the court with his son, Bronny James, on the Los Angeles Lakers.
The duo will be the first father-son team in NBA history after the Lakers selected Bronny with the 55th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft following his single season at USC.
LeBron, now entering his seventh season with the Lakers, is coming off an outstanding performance at the Olympics in Paris, where he led Team USA to a gold medal and earned MVP honors in the men’s basketball tournament at 39 years old.
The Lakers will face the Minnesota Timberwolves on October 22nd, marking one of the main highlights for opening night in the NBA, just over a week away.
