LeBron James shared a laugh with his daughter Zhuri as they sat courtside this past weekend.
The NBA legend, 38, was seen sitting with his 9-year-old daughter as they watched LeBron’s son Bryce’s basketball game.
In the video posted by ESPN on Instagram but taken by Jessica Camille, the dad of three nuzzled his daughter’s face, who in turn leaned away from him and pulled a playful scared expression.
The proud dad later pulled at his daughter’s hat and leaned in again, playing with Zhuri.

“Happy Bday My Princess 👸🏾 Z,” LeBron wrote in the caption of his carousel of snaps. “Love you ♾️ and more!!! 🤎🤎🤎🤎✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾.” The father-of-three’s post contained an image of Zhuri smiling in front of a multi-colored balloon backdrop with a “Happy Birthday” light.
“Happiest Birthday to my favorite girl!!💕🥰🫶🏾🎉🤎,” Savannah, 37, captioned a video of her daughter chatting in a pink chair. “I can’t believe the baby of my babies is 9🥲 #ZhuriNova,” she sweetly added.
Earlier this fall, Savannah shared a photo of her daughter as she posed on her first day back to school.
“3rd grade, here she comes!! 😊✨💕 And she’s ready!! 🫶🏾,” she captioned the shot.
The NBA star’s mom, Gloria James, posted another photo from the day on her own Instagram, writing, “My grand girl Zhuri read and understood the assignment on her first day of 3rd grade 📚✏️🏫. She gets a 🌟. Enjoy your 3rd school year. Love you much, Grammy💗💗💗💗.”
