    Bronny James has fans convinced he and Parker Whitfield are an item.

    After the pair were spotted holding hands together while in Paris for the Summer Olympics earlier this month, Bronny, 19, dropped a sweet comment on her Instagram page recently, according to TMZ .

    “She’s so pretty,” Bronny, who was the Lakers’ 55th overall pick in this year’s NBA draft, wrote.

    The oldest son of LeBron James follows Parker — who’s the daughter of Hollywood producer Salli Richardson-Whitfield and actor Dondré Whitfield — on Instagram and her profile is private.

    The rumored couple had the internet buzzing when they were seen in the French capital with Bronny’s younger brother Bryce and Sadie Johnson , who are also said to be dating.

    The brothers brought their brunette companions to the private afterparty at L’Avenue restaurant after the U.S. men’s basketball team beat France in the gold-medal game on Aug. 10.

    It’s unclear exactly how Bronny and Parker met and when they got together.

    Parker is entering her sophomore year at Spelman College , a private, historically Black women’s liberal arts college in Atlanta.

    Her mother, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, was the director and executive producer for season two of HBO’s “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty” series.

    In July, Bronny made his NBA Summer League debut as a Laker at Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

    The USC product averaged 8.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and one assist spanning four games.
