LeBron and Savannah: The Power Couple Who Prioritize Parenthood Over NBA Stardom

Bronny James Jr. is currently 19, while Bryce Maximus and Zhuri Nova are 16 and 9 respectively, and all three are the offspring of LeBron James and his partner. It’s worth noting that Bronny and Bryce were born before their parents tied the knot in 2013, while Zhuri arrived a year after the wedding.

From their social media accounts, it’s clear that both Bronny and Bryce have aspirations to follow in their father’s footsteps and become basketball players. LeBron James announced in February 2022 that he intends to spend his final season in the NBA playing alongside his oldest son. He stated, “I plan on spending my last year playing with my son. Wherever Bronny is, that’s where I’ll be hanging out.” Additionally, LeBron has expressed his hopes to the basketball gods that this will come to fruition, much like he has throughout his career. Sports Illustrated even featured Bronny and Bryce on the cover with the tagline “Chosen Sons,” similar to when LeBron was dubbed “The Chosen One” on the same magazine’s cover in 2002.

The renowned basketball icon has openly expressed his deep affection for his children, stating in a 2021 interview with Access Hollywood, “My daughter and sons are the most important things in my life. Whenever she smiles, it brings me immense joy, no matter what I am doing.” While he has voiced his concerns about the emotional toll of being away from his family while on NBA journeys, revealing to USA Today, “I miss my family a lot. My family includes my wife, children, and mother, among others. It’s not an easy task.”

In February 2023, LeBron James made history by becoming the NBA’s all-time top scorer. His family, including his wife and kids, watched from the stands and joined him on the court to celebrate. Bronny, Bryce, and Zhuri even made a video congratulating their father on his upcoming anniversary. During the 2023 ESPYs in July, LeBron received the award for best record-breaking performance and was joined on stage by his wife and children. Savannah gave a brief speech about her husband before presenting him with the prize, which was edited for television by Zhuri. While Savannah was speaking, she accidentally swore, but Zhuri quickly reminded her to stop. Savannah continued by praising LeBron’s dedication and impact on basketball.

Bronny has achieved many milestones, including inspiring his school to victory, making the cover of Sports Illustrated at the age of 16, and being selected to play in the McDonald’s All American Game. He has now committed to play collegiate basketball for USC.
