“Got That Akron Hammer?” – Everyone Can’t Stop Joking About LeBron James’ Visible “Dong” Through His Pants That Was Hard To Miss During Red Carpet Event [PHOTOS]
LBJ’s TIME100 Sports Gala appearance sparked an unexpected wave of reactions online.
LeBron James and Savannah James made one of the biggest fashion statements at the inaugural TIME100 Sports Gala, though for reasons other than they hoped.
The longtime couple arrived at Thursday night’s event in New York City dressed to kill.
LeBron wore a tailored double-breasted suit with black sunglasses, while Savannah stunned in a sleeveless velvet gown with a deep neckline and feathered detailing.
Photos from the red carpet quickly spread across social media.
However, many fans focused on something other than the couple’s outfits.
Several users claimed they noticed a visible bulge beneath LeBron’s suit pants, turning the photos into an unexpected viral moment.

The reactions came flooding in shortly after Complex Style shared images from the event on X.
“Bron got that Akron Hammer???” one fan joked.
“LeHammer is begging to be let out! I see you playa!🤣,” another wrote.
A third user commented, “LeMeat detected.”
One surprised fan added, “wtf is that Omg.”
Despite the jokes, LeBron attended the gala as one of the athletes recognized on TIME’s inaugural TIME100 Sports list, which honored influential figures across the sports world. The event featured stars from multiple leagues, including Simone Biles, Jalen Brunson, Alex Morgan and Myles Garrett.
The appearance also comes during an intriguing offseason for the NBA’s all-time leading scorer.
The 41-year-old has not announced where he’ll play next season after ending his eight-year run with the Los Angeles Lakers.
His decision has become one of the league’s biggest offseason storylines, with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat frequently mentioned among the potential landing spots. LeBron recently declined to reveal his plans during a public appearance, saying he won’t keep fans waiting much longer.
The gala marked one of LeBron and Savannah’s latest public appearances together, following the former’s recent headline-making appearance at Jay-Z’s concert.
While the event celebrated some of sports’ biggest names, fans online found their own reason to keep talking about LeBron long after the cameras stopped flashing.
