Bronny James and Salli Richardson Whitfield’s daughter, Parker Whitefield, were seen together in the audience at the Paris Olympics 2024. Following that, confused fans have been shipping them to be a couple.
The two were seen together twice during the Olympic match: first, in the match between the USA and Brazil and then in the men’s basketball semifinals between the USA and Serbia.
The newfound connection puzzled the audiences as there were no prior rumors about them. While there is still a space to suspect them of being just friends, it’s a bit difficult to believe that Parker traveled all the way to Paris just because she loves basketball.
