LeBron James pens emotional message to daughter, Zhuri as Kamala Harris gets defeated by Donald Trump
Donald Trump made a historic comeback as he secured another term in office to become the 47th President of the United States. The outcome has triggered strong reactions, especially within the NBA community, where figures like LeBron James now face an uncertain future, not in terms of their careers but regarding concerns for their families.
Following the conclusion of the election, LeBron James posted a message on Instagram specifically for his daughter, Zhuri. The Lakers star, who had openly supported and endorsed Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, used this moment to express his disappointment and concern.
HEAVY ON MY HEART & MIND THIS AM MY PRINCESS!! PROMISE TO PROTECT YOU WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE AND MORE!! WE DONT NEED THEIR HELP!
LeBron James wrote on Instagram
Furthermore, the four-time NBA champion’s sentiment resonated with other prominent NBA figures, such as Stephen Curry and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr as they also voiced their opposition. Curry, who openly campaigned for Harris, and Kerr, who echoed Curry’s support, have a history of clashing with Trump.

Despite the crushing defeat she suffered last night, LeBron James put his reputation on the line as he publicly shared his support for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. His endorsement came in a video to his millions of followers on Twitter and Instagram, where he condemned Trump.
LBJ’s endorsement echoed the support of fellow NBA players, notably Stephen Curry, who had vocally backed Harris over recent months. Curry’s involvement even saw him participate by video conference at the Democratic convention in August.
