LeBron James isn’t the only superstar athlete in the family. And we’re not talking about his son, Bronny. With the NBA playoffs starting, the Los Angeles Lakers player (okay, more of an icon than just a player) took some time to watch his daughter Zhuri play volleyball.
While LeBron and his son/LA Lakers teammate are getting all the attention, it looks like they’re not the only members of the James family in the spotlight. “King James” recently took to Instagram, posting a video of someone he considers “truly amazing.” And of course, that someone is daughter Zhuri.
Even though Bronny James is the most recognizable kiddo in this famous family, he also has two siblings. So, who are LeBron James’ children?
LeBron “Bronny” James, Jr. was born in October, 2004. The budding star made the cover of Sports Illustrated at age 16 and signed a deal with Nike almost immediately after he turned 18. In 2024, the then-19-year-old was drafted by the Lakers. That made James Sr. and James Jr. the first father-son pair to play in the NBA at the same time.
The Laker also has an 18-year-old son, Bryce Maximum James. Like his dad and big brother, Bryce is also a basketball whiz. He is currently a University of Arizona Wildcat.
And then there is James’ youngest child, Zhuri. The only girl among the three siblings, LeBron’s daughter seems to have somewhat different athletic aspirations than her brothers. Instead of basketball, the 11-year-old is a volleyball star-in-the-making.
Earlier this week, James posted an absolutely adorable video (on Instagram) of his daughter at the League One Volleyball Championships, captioning it, “Zhuri did the first serve at the LOVB Volleyball Championships last night…proud of you! You’re truly amazing!” The doting dad’s post featured several angles of the tween in action, and judging by the clips, it looks like she has a promising future in the sport.
Applause for the young athlete poured in, with LOVB calling her, “A star in the making!” Another comment hinted at a matchup between Zhuri and 12-year-old Riley Curry. Of course, she’s the daughter of another famous NBA dad, the Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry. And like Zhuri, Riley also plays volleyball. One commenter predicted, “Give it a few more years, we will have that college rivalry,” while another said, “Or they can be teammates.”
While volleyball is her game, Zhuri hasn’t completely shied away from the basketball world. Last February, the NBA posted videos of the youngest James dribbling the ball next to her famous dad, with the caption, “LeBron James had a special guest as Zhuri joined her father on court pregame in the Bay! #GirlDad.” Sports fans can’t wait to see more of this promising young athlete in the future.
