[Saba Sports News] YesJulz is shutting down rumors about an alleged affair with NBA superstar LeBron James.
The Los Angeles Lakers suffered a tough loss to the Dallas Mavericks, 118-97, on Tuesday, Jan. 7, but LeBron’s viral dunk stole the spotlight on social media. Social media personality YesJulz reacted to the play with five exhale emojis, sparking fan reactions in her post’s comments.
“This is the worst possible time for you to do this LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO,” one fan wrote, referencing lyrics from Drake’s “Irish Freestyle.”
Fans have speculated that Drake’s now-deleted “Fighting Irish Freestyle” alludes to both Kendrick Lamar and LeBron James, reigniting past tensions between Drake and the NBA star. In the track, Drake seemingly criticizes LeBron, leading to widespread rumors about their fallout.
Adding to the drama, DJ Akademiks has claimed in a livestream that Drake once helped LeBron cover up an alleged affair with YesJulz, including rumors of an alleged sex tape.
“YesJulz and LeBron? Baseless nonsense,” YesJulz replied on social media. “Bron is my favorite player, and I’ll always celebrate his wins. I don’t care about your baseless rumors.”
YesJulz also emphasized her admiration for LeBron’s wife, Savannah James, and their family. “Love her. I think she’s amazing,” she said during a 2023 livestream. “They have a beautiful family, and I’m really tired of this stain being put on my name.”
LeBron, married to his high school sweetheart Savannah since 2013, has not publicly addressed the resurfaced rumors or the alleged tension with Drake. The couple shares three children: Bronny, 20, Bryce, 17, and Zhuri, 10.
Despite the gossip, neither LeBron nor Savannah has commented on the speculation, leaving YesJulz’s denial as the last word on the matter.
