Los Angeles – It’s not LeBron or his two famous sons, but Zhuri James, the youngest daughter, who is only 10 years old, who is causing a stir online after making a “naive yet dangerous” statement about her brothers’ girlfriends – Bronny and Bryce James.
In a small interview aired on the family YouTube channel, Zhuri was randomly asked: “Between Sadie and Whitfield, who do you like better?” – and within seconds, her answer was assumed, and the James family, was eager.
At first, Zhuri smiled and said softly:
“Sadie is so sweet, she helps me with my hair and always brings me cake. I like her a lot.”
A harmless answer, a light-hearted idea ended there – until she continued:
“And Whitfield… she always talks about Bronny. I think he likes that, but he’s a little bored.”
As soon as that line was said, the entire studio erupted in laughter – and Bronny was chosen to be “frozen” for a few seconds. Bryce, meanwhile, could only smile, and LeBron was chosen to “cover his face” to keep from laughing.
However, the moment was resolved completely at the end, when Zhuri discussed soulfully:
“If Bronny and Bryce both brought their girlfriends home, I would sit next to Sadie. Because she’s more human.”
The social media scene exploded immediately. “Zhuri chooses sides!” headlines flooded James’ fan pages and forums. The phrase “Zhuri vs Whitfield” even climbed straight to the top of the trending list within hours.
One fan commented: “Zhuri is the most powerful person in the James family, not LeBron!”
Another wrote: “If Zhuri says someone is ‘family’, that’s an unmistakable sign.”
A close source revealed that, after the clip went viral, Bronny gently sized up her sister, while Whitfield was said to “just laugh it off,” even though fans discovered she had temporarily disabled comments on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Sadie Johnson – Bryce’s new girlfriend – was “praised” by the online community as if she had just received a “certificate of approval” from the NBA’s most famous sister.
This seemingly small story is becoming the first “applied civil war” in the James family, as fans are constantly discussing: Is this just a girl’s innocent words, or is it a “sign” of a big change in the James brothers’ relationship system?
One thing is for sure – Zhuri James has just proven that she is a “little star” but has a big influence.
With just a few heartfelt words, she has created a stir in the sports world – and social media.
