LA Lakers star LeBron James’ wife, Savannah, attended the 7th Annual Winter Wonderland Charity Event organized by the ex-wife of former NBA superstar Carmelo Anthony, La La. The event took place at the Gauchos Gym in the Bronx, New York.
For the last seven years, during Christmas time, Anthony would gather hundreds of kids in the Bronx to bring them cheers and joy. Close friend James graced the event this year, and James showed love through an Instagram story.
“So fun supporting you!!! 🫶🏾😍😍😍,” James’ caption said.

James reposted Anthony’s Instagram story, which showed the two happily posing together at the event. Anthony captioned the post:
For Anthony, organizing this annual event is fulfilling and something she is passionate about.
“We give Christmas to 400 inner city kids, which is so powerful and something that I’m so passionate about,” Anthony told The Blast, adding, “I can’t believe it’s seven years now doing this.””We have performances, dance battles, we have dinner together,” she said, adding, “We give out gifts and clothing and winter coats and just a lot of amazing things for the kids.”

Kiyan Anthony, the No. 1 recruit in New York, pulled up at his mother’s charity event. In an Instagram story posted by La La, Kiyan is seen waving and greeting an enthusiastic crowd. Cheers from the kids welcomed the young star.
“@kiyananthony in the building!!!” the caption said.

In the next story, La La posted a video of Kiyan announcing the winner of a brand new PlayStation with a caption:
“@kiyananthony gave away a Playstation 🤯”
La La posted a video of Kiyan giving away a gaming console to a lucky winner.
Gaucho’s Gym is also familiar to Kiyan as, according to his mother, he played basketball there during his younger years.
“That’s the gym my son played basketball in in his beginning years of becoming a basketball player,” La La said, adding, “So that gym has always been really special to us.”
The kids are happy to see Kiyan, and they may also be happier as the young baller will be staying close to home. He will suit up for the Syracuse Orange next year, which is only 280 miles from New York.
