A’ja Wilson has been winning people all through her on and off-court moments. As the WNBA star has long been known for her impressive playmaking, she’s often compared to LeBron James. And Wilson herself takes pride in it.
However, A’ja has been around the James family on multiple occasions and has gone on to bond with LeBron’s kids as well. Just like the NBA star, his children also like to add a little glimmer of signature shoes when they play.
LeBron James’ Daughter Caught A’ja Wilson’s Attention For Her Shoe Choice
The Las Vegas Aces center A’ja Wilson recently shared an endearing message for LeBron’s 10-year-old daughter Zhuri James. Zhuri was spotted wearing a mismatched Nike A’One during a volleyball match.
The young Jhuri was rocking the WNBA star’s signature shoes in a unique pair at the City Volleyball Club in North Hollywood. One in ‘Pink Aura’ and the other in ‘Indigo Girl’. Savannah James, LeBron’s wife, posted a photo showing Zhuri ready to serve in her A’One shoes.
However, it prompted Wilson to repost the image on her Instagram Story with the caption, “My girl,” accompanied by pink, blue, and volleyball emojis. Additionally, in a follow-up video, Zhuri was seen making a diving play on the court.
