Bronny James sat courtside with HBCU student, daughter of actors

Los Angeles Lakers guard Bronny James has a potential love interest and she’s an HBCU student.

Parker Whitfield, daughter of actress Salli Richardson-Whitfield and actor Dondre Whitfield, sat next to Bronny James during the Aug. 8 Team USA win over Serbia.

Whitfield currently attends Spelman College, an HBCU located in Atlanta, Georgia. She started school last fall.

“And just like that our baby is off to college. Wasn’t I just changing her diapers last week. Time has gone by way too fast. I know she’s ready but I’m going to miss my baby. @alldondre we did good my love,” Salli wrote in an Instagram caption last year.

The pair also took in the Aug. 6 game between Team USA and Team Brazil. Team USA went on to win the gold medal after tightly contested games against Serbia and France on Thursday and Saturday.

Whitfield hails from Los Angeles. Bronny’s father, LeBron James, has played in Los Angeles for over half a decade. The pair’s appearances have fueled rumors of a romance.

The first college offer for Bronny James came from North Carolina Central back in 2020, with one from rival North Carolina A&T to soon follow. James ultimately spent one season in college at USC before entering the 2024 NBA Draft. He was selected in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft by the Lakers.
