[Saba Sports News] NBA fans had a field day after pictures of LeBron James with South African pop star Tyla at a pre-Olympics event went viral.
Many joked that James would land in trouble with his wife, Savannah, and end up sleeping on the couch after returning from Team USA’s Olympic run.
Fans quipped that James appeared stoic and avoided contact, suggesting he learned his lesson from previous photos to avoid getting into trouble. One fan humorously referenced James’ chivalrous ways, recalling his interaction with Jeanie Buss and Linda Rambis earlier in the season.
This wasn’t James’ first encounter with Tyla, as they were seen talking during a Lakers game against the Warriors last season, though the details of their conversation were never disclosed.
Despite the jokes, James is known for his impeccable conduct. He has been married to his high school sweetheart, Savannah, for nearly 11 years, and they’ve been together long before his NBA career.
James’ serious demeanor might also reflect his intense focus on leading Team USA to gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics, being one of the most experienced Olympic players on the team.
Tyla was at the event as an artist, performing her hit song “Water” at the Prelude to the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
