How Much Older Is LeBron James Than His Wife Savannah James?
You don’t have to be a basketball fan to know exactly who LeBron James is. He’s won multiple championships with three different teams — the Miami Heat, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Los Angeles Lakers. He’s widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players to ever step on the court, and after more than two decades in the league, he is still playing at a high level today.
LeBron had a milestone birthday in 2024 and is now the oldest active player in the NBA. Therefore, there’s been a lot of chatter about how long he can keep up his type of play. Since so much has been made about his age, many people began asking about Savannah James as they are curious about how old his wife is.
Here’s more on Savannah including how much younger she is than LeBron and what she does for a living.
LeBron’s age and net worth
LeBron was born on Dec. 30, 1984. Despite turning 40, he still ended the regular season averaging 24.4 points per game with 8.2 assists and 7.8 rebounds per game. And at that age, he’s proven that he’s still one of the most popular players in the game today as the Lakers announced that he and teammate Luca Doncic sold the most jerseys over the season.
Per Celebrity Net Worth, LeBron has earned more than $530 million from his NBA salary alone. But apart from basketball, LeBron is a businessman. He’s had endorsement deals with dozens of companies over the years, including Nike, McDonald’s, Microsoft, State Farm, Coca-Cola, Dunkin Donuts, Baskin-Robbins, and Samsung.
He also endorsed Beats by Dre and owned a 1% stake in the company. When it sold to Apple for $3 billion, he received a cut of $30 million.
These days, the athlete has a net worth of $800 million.
Savannah’s age and net worth
Savannah was born on Aug. 27, 1986, making her just one year and seven months younger than her husband.
The two have been together since they were teenagers. They attended rival high schools located in their hometown of Akron, Ohio, and went to an Outback Steakhouse on their first date.
On New Year’s Eve 2011, after a decade together, LeBron asked his longtime girlfriend to marry him.
“I was nervous. It felt like before a finals game,” LeBron admitted to Oprah Winfrey about the proposal. “I had been thinking about it for a while, but it just came to me one day and I was like, ‘This is a part of growth for me.’ This is the lady and the woman I have been with through all the good and all the bad. She’s been there for a long time and I wanted her to continue to be there with me, so I felt like at that moment it was time.”
They tied the knot in 2013 and have three children.
Savannah is a businesswoman. She launched the furniture line Home Court with LeBron and ran a juicery called Juice Spot, when they lived in Miami. She also created a YouTube channel with her daughter called “All Things Zhuri” and hosts the podcast Everybody’s Crazy with April McDaniel. She has done some modeling as well. Today, she has a net worth of $100 million, per Celebrity Net Worth.
