Savannah James is defending her husband, LeBron James, against critics who are judging his decision to leave the Los Angeles Lakers.Last month, LeBron decided to step away from the Lakers after eight seasons. Given the four-time NBA champion's status in the league, it quickly became a hot topic among sports critics who debated whether LeBron was making the right decision for his future. Savannah, however, is over the discourse involving her husband's career and took the time to call out critics.During the July 7 episode of her podcast "Everybody's Crazy," which she co-hosts with April McDaniel, the two spoke about positivity and how it's not very common for people online to express it. McDaniel then turned the conversation to LeBron, where she noted that he receives a lot of hate due to his icon status. Savannah agreed, adding that it's "crazy" how some people want to have "a subjective opinion about what everybody thinks is the best thing."While Savannah didn't name any names, the mom of three argued that there are some critics who have "definitely made careers out of talking about [LeBron]."LeBron James and Savannah James' RelationshipLeBron and Savannah are high school sweethearts, and they tied the knot in 2013.

Several teams have reportedly have their eye on the NBA icon, like the Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Philadelphia 76ers, so he will not be short of options leading into next season.
