Captain LeBron James and his Team USA side made a thrilling comeback against Team Serbia in the semi-finals of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Despite this, what caught the basketball community’s attention was James’ unique handshake courtside with his 3 kids, Bronny James, Bryce James, and Zhuri James after Team USA’s win against the Serbians.

James performed 3 different handshakes with his 3 children which amused the basketball community. His two sons, Bronny, who was picked by the Los Angeles Lakers this year, and Bryce, a 2025 four-star prospect, were in attendance, as was James’ daughter Zhuri. They witnessed their father’s triple-double, as the eldest James concluded with 16 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists.

On the other hand, Bronny James was drafted as the 55th overall pick by the Lakers during the 2024 NBA Draft. Also, the Lakers created history as they have the first-ever father-son duo in the NBA on their roster, LeBron and Bronny James. A lot of expectations will be on the younger James to deliver in his debut 2024-25 NBA season.
