LeBron James is popularly known for his outstanding skills on the basketball court. For more than half of his life, the 38-year-old has been working hard to solidify his name as the basketball GOAT of the world. So far, he’s been doing exactly that and making steady progress each year. James’ success speaks for itself as he has won multiple accolades over the course of 20 years. It would take a lot to match what he has done.
The Los Angeles Lakers star has been happily married since 2013, to his high school sweetheart, Savannah. She has been extremely supportive of his endeavors since the get-go. Together, they share three children, Bronny, Bryce Maximus, and Zhuri. Out of the three of them, Bronny has been the most successful on the court. Several claim that he is following in his father’s footsteps as well. Besides being a good basketball player, Bronny is also good at video games.

But the eldest LeBron James offspring might not be the only video game fanatic in that household. Savannah recently posted an Instagram story of LeBron’s EA Sports Madden NFL set up at home saying, “Man what? Talk about overstimulation.” The 4x NBA Champion also made his love for the game even more apparent by saying, “Man I love @EAMaddenNFL SO DAMN MUCH!!!” on X. Athletes love playing other sports during their off time, but LeBron enjoys some good old Madden.
LeBron James also celebrated 2023 New Year’s Day playing Madden
However, this wasn’t the only time Savannah exposed LeBron James’ obsession with Madden. On New Year’s Day 2023, she posted a video on social media featuring the NBA legend playing Madden. He seemed like a teenager engulfed by the world of video games. Savannah asked LeBron if that was how he planned to celebrate New Year’s Day with her.

His response to it was, “I mean listen, I’ve been in Atlanta all weekend. I had my birthday celebration, I went to a basketball game. We celebrated my birthday with you and Mom good. [Watched] Ohio’s State’s crushing loss… so I got to get it done.” James certainly wanted some time to himself. And Savannah did not feel like it was anything serious either as she was giggling in the video. James is a very hard worker behind the scenes.
LeBron James had a brief history with football in the past. In high school, he played for the football team for a while. He was so good on the field that people claim he would’ve had an equally successful career in the NFL. The former NBA League MVP was once offered to join the Dallas Cowboys as well. These days, his love for football shows out while playing Madden.
