It’s official, Miami Heat player LeBron James, 29, and wife Savannah Brinson-James are expecting a baby girl.

Miami Heat president Pat Riley spilled the beans Thursday, confirming that the James’ are indeed expecting. ”Savannah now is going to have a little baby girl to join her in the fight against the two boys and LeBron, which she needs,” Riley said during the team’s season-ending meeting.

Rumors began floating around Savannah’s pregnancy shortly after photos from GQ’s NBA All-Star party in February exposed what seemed to be a small baby bump. Since then, we haven’t seen a full-body photo of Mrs. James, and now we know why.

Lebron and Savannah tied the knot last summer in San Diego, but have been together since they were 16. The high school sweehearts have two other children together, sons Lebron James Jr.,9, and Bryce Maximus James, 6.

Join us in congratulating the James family.
