LeBron James’ son Bronny was on hand for Team USA’s upset comeback win over Serbia in the men’s basketball semifinals.
The 19-year-old watched as his father – and his star teammates – overcame a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Amidst the action on the court, spectators noticed that Bronny was accompanied by a young woman, whom fans identified as Salli Richardson-Whitfield’s daughter, Parker Whitfield.
The newly selected Laker follows Whitfield on Instagram, however little is known about her as her accounts are private.
It is also unclear how the couple met and whether they are romantically involved or just friends.

“I get a lot of criticism, but I have to face it,” he added.
