LeBron James Is Thrilled After Daughter Zhuri Chooses His Number for Her Volleyball Jersey: ‘LETS GO BABY Z’

LeBron James is one proud papa!

The NBA legend took to social media to share a series of new photos of his 10-year-old daughter Zhuri James in her volleyball uniform and with her teammates.

"🥰🥰😍😍🤎🤎🤎 YOU GO GIRL!!!!!! @allthingszhuri LET'S GO BABY Z!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. Best of luck this season and GO CRAZY!! 🏐👋🏾. #JamesGang👑," the Los Angeles Lakers star captioned the post.

Zhuri gave a sweet nod to her superstar dad with her jersey number — 6, which LeBron wore with the Miami Heat, Team USA (including this summer in Paris as they claimed gold) and briefly with the Lakers.

Zhuri is the youngest member of the James family to show a talent in sports — following in the footsteps of her basketball star older brothers Bryce, 17, and NBA rookie Bronny, 20.

Last year, LeBron shared footage on Instagram as he attended one of Zhuri’s volleyball games and cheered along in the stands, shouting "Let's go munchkin."

Speaking to Access Hollywood back in 2021, LeBron gushed about his daughter. "My daughter is the greatest thing in my life, along with my boys. So, whenever she smiles, it don't matter what I'm doing, it makes me happy," he told the outlet at the time.
