Savannah James and popular streamer Tylil met and recorded a viral video together at Teyana Taylor’s Halloween party, playing into a long-running internet joke.

What’s Been Going on With Bron and Savannah? 

LeBron and Savannah recently gave Vogue a virtual tour of their Los Angeles home for its Objects of Affection series, offering a glimpse into their life on the West Coast as they navigate a new chapter in their family’s routine.

After spending eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, James left the team and signed with the Philadelphia 76ers in July 2026, returning to the Eastern Conference for the 2026–27 NBA season.

The 42-year-old James has maintained his intense daily recovery routine, which includes using a hyperbaric chamber, cold tubs, red light therapy and cryotherapy.

Meanwhile, Savannah, has remained in Los Angeles with their 11-year-old daughter, Zhuri, to avoid disrupting her schooling.

Savannah co-hosts the podcast “Everybody’s Crazy” with April McDaniel and runs her skincare line, Reframe Beauty.

James Playing Well for Surging Sixers

About two weeks into the NBA season, the Sixers are looking as good as advertised. James has performed well overall during his first month with Philadelphia, who have jumped out to a 7-1 start. However, his scoring and shooting efficiency have dipped as he adjusts to a new system.

Serving as the team’s primary facilitator and a calming presence on the court, James has helped guide Philadelphia through its strong start. In a 126-107 victory over the Chicago Bulls, he finished with 15 points, nine assists and seven rebounds.

His scoring output and perimeter shooting have been more inconsistent than usual as he adjusts to playing alongside Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid.
