Zhuri James - English
When your dad is LeBron James and your brothers are making headlines in basketball, it’s easy to get lost in the shuffle. But 10-year-old Zhuri James made it clear: she’s not here to ride coattails – she’s here to take over. In her latest volleyball game, Zhuri had everyone’s eyes glued to the court. She delivered an all-around show that screamed: I’m here to win.
The energy, the leadership, the grit – it was all there. Wearing the iconic A’ja Wilson sneakers, Zhuri showed style, power, and poise beyond her years. Her teammates looked to her when it mattered, and she responded with highlight-worthy plays that shifted the game’s momentum.
Rising above the legacy – and building her own
There’s been plenty of talk around the James kids – debates over Bronny’s NBA journey, questions about whether Bryce is the one truly carrying the family flame. But while the spotlight has bounced between the brothers, real ones know: Zhuri’s the quiet storm. With every game, she’s proving that the youngest James isn’t just tagging along – she’s building her own path, and it’s lined with hard work and undeniable talent.
She’s the kind of player who doesn’t flinch – she charges at the ball, dives for impossible saves, and takes big swings without hesitation. That James DNA is obvious, but it’s not just genes at work. Zhuri’s grit, her court presence, and that infectious confidence? That’s all her.
The new wave: daughters of NBA icons dominating the court
There’s clearly something brewing in the next generation. Just as Riley Curry recently stunned in her own volleyball performance, Zhuri is now making waves – showing the same fierce focus and competitive fire we’re used to seeing from NBA greats. Volleyball might not be basketball, but these girls are proving that legacy isn’t about the sport – it’s about how you show up and take control.
Zhuri may be young, but she’s already showing she has what it takes. She doesn’t need to outshine her dad or brothers – because she’s shining in her own lane. And if this is just the beginning, then we’re in for something special.
Zhuri James is showing the world that being a James isn’t about following a blueprint – it’s about rewriting it. From her style to her skills, she’s making it clear: she’s the boss now.

Turning Point for the Cubs? Tucker, PCA Ready to Move Past Summer Slumps
<!--> [--> Rowan Kavner MLB Writer <!-->]--> <!--> --> ANAHEIM, Calif. – It was a swing more than a month in the making, a catalyst for a dramatic turnaround and possibly the antidote to an extended offensive affliction no one on Chicago’s North Side could have seen coming. But Kyle Tucker’s first home run in 34 days – in the Cubs' 3-2 win on Friday over the Angels – wasn’t exactly cathartic.While his teammates gleefully slapped hands and smacked the visiting dugout railing after he pulled a fastball from Tyler Anderson 405 feet into the seats in right field, it was not until the even-keeled outfielder rounded third on his stoic jaunt that Tucker finally cracked a smile. "We’ll see how tomorrow goes," he deadpanned in the aftermath, careful not to make too much of a single performance. The next day was even […]
