LeBron James is currently destroying the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France. However, his oldest son may have something other than basketball on his mind. At Team USA’s most recent game against Serbia, Bronny James was seen sitting courtside with the daughter of Salli Richardson Whitfield. This has led to many rumors swirling as everyone wants to know if James and Parker Whitfield are dating. How will this affect Bronny’s play on the court?
Reports from the Daily Mail state that it is unknown if that pair are romantically involved or if they are just friends. It is also unknown how the two met. Bronny James does follow Whitfield on Instagram, but unfortunately, her account is private. The recently-drafted Los Angeles Laker can be seen rocking a white shirt with black shorts. While Parker is wearing a cream colored top with light pants.
Lebron James and His Son Bronny James Will Be Teammates
Bronny struggled to establish himself during his time in the NBA’s Summer League. However, he did reach double-digit scoring against his father’s old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron James has stated multiple times that his son is, in fact, NBA-ready. However, that is yet to be seen. Bronny has faced some very harsh criticisms.
Bronny James has been told he is not an NBA player since he started his first year of college. Now, after the Lakers drafted him with the 55th overall pick, he has yet to prove his worth to the organization. However, for LeBron James, he gets to play alongside his son. That has been a dream of his for some time now.
LeBron James is reaching the end of his amazing career, and it must be very special to him to finish it off by sharing the court with his son. It has been said that Bronny James will spend most of his time in the NBA’s G-League. Will his possible new relationship with Parker Whitfield distract him from basketball? Only time will tell.
