Zhuri James was born in October 2014, just a few months after her father, LeBron James, rejoined the Cleveland Cavaliers.
According to everything we’ve heard and seen, LeBron is a loving father.
While Zhuri’s older brother, Bronny, plays high school basketball, she appears to be honing her own skills. LeBron is evidently doing everything he can to help her learn how to be a good parent.
He and Savannah also run an Instagram account and a YouTube channel called ‘All Things Zhuri.’
On these platforms, LeBron shares family photos and some of Zhuri’s own stories. At the time of writing, 359k people follow the Instagram handle itself. She has 11 videos on YouTube, one of which is a cute one in which she makes a no-bake snack with LeBron. Given how much attention she will get as she gets older, it seems like LeBron is already keeping an eye on her social media use.
LeBron James is not the kind of person who won’t post pictures of his family on social media. So, it wasn’t a big surprise when he sent her a video of her dancing with her dance teacher.
LeBron also added a funny comment that serves as a warning to anyone who might want to date Zhuri: “Yeah, you guys, it’s over for me! Whoever my Baby Z brings home first, I feel bad for them. Look at my mother’s face arguing with her dance teacher, Ms. Caprice. After they finish their routine exercise, she lets Zhuri pick a song for a ‘freestyle,’ which is not part of their routine. ‘She did!’ As you can see, even at 6 years old, Zhuri is very good at this. A huge number of famous people, NBA players, and musicians have shared messages of support for the young girl. All of this praise and encouragement will definitely push her to be the best person she can be. As for the guys she will date in the future, well, tough luck!”
In other news, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was playing through a torn tendon in his right foot and may need surgery in the offseason. James’s foot will be re-evaluated soon, and if surgery is needed, it would keep him out of action for two months.
James injured his foot in a regular-season game against the Dallas Mavericks on February 26. On-court cameras captured him saying, “I heard it pop” while he was on the floor, and even though he played the rest of that game, he missed the Lakers’ next 13 games.
When he returned to the court on March 26, James said that at the time, several doctors told him he needed surgery that would end his season. However, he found “the LeBron James of feet,” who helped him get back on the court. He played in every other game for the Lakers, helping them make the play-in playoffs as the No. 7 seed and then all the way to the Western Conference finals.
Even though James averaged 27.8 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 10 assists per game there, the Denver Nuggets swept the Lakers. After Game 4, he said the injury kept him from being at his best and that he would get an MRI on his foot to figure out what to do next. “I knew I could get to the finish line,” James told ESPN in an interview. “Of course, I knew I had to deal with it and deal with the pain or deal with not being able to be who I was before the accident, but nothing made me feel like I couldn’t get to the finish line.”
“I’m going to get an MRI to see if the tendon has fixed or not, and then I’ll decide what to do. We’ll see how things go.”
James will be ready for the start of the next season, even if he needs surgery. That is if he doesn’t quit. During his Game 4 press conference, he talked about the possibility, but most people think he will still play. Based on what he’s heard, Charania said Thursday that he doesn’t think James will quit.
