LeBron James marked his daughter’s return to school this week with a heartfelt Instagram post, sharing a series of photos and video clips documenting her first day of sixth grade.

The NBA superstar posted an eight-slide carousel to his Instagram account showing his 11-year-old daughter, Zhuri Nova James, dressed and ready for her first day back in the classroom, alongside candid moments of the two of them together on the drive to school.

In the caption accompanying the post, James expressed both pride and protectiveness over his daughter’s milestone.

“My Baby Z first day of 6th grade today! Man o Man!! Ammo is fully loaded and I ain’t playing about my Princess,” James wrote.

He continued with an encouraging message for his daughter as she begins the new school year.

“Have a wonderful school year mama face, have fun and continue to be YOU! It’s always ENOUGH! Love you,” James wrote.

The post included several photos of Zhuri posing for the camera, along with short video clips showing father and daughter in the car together, sharing a lighthearted moment while music played during their drive. James has periodically used his social media platforms over the years to document milestones in his children’s lives, offering fans an occasional glimpse into his family life away from the basketball court.

Zhuri is the youngest of James’ three children with his wife, Savannah James. The couple also share two sons, Bronny James, 21, and Bryce James, 19. Bronny has followed in his father’s footsteps into professional basketball, while Bryce has continued to develop his own game at the high school and collegiate levels in recent years.

James, one of the most decorated players in NBA history, has long been open about his role as a father, frequently describing the importance of family alongside his basketball career in public comments and interviews over the years. His social media presence has often reflected that balance, mixing posts about his professional achievements with more personal glimpses into moments with his children.

Wednesday’s post drew a wave of engagement from fans and followers, many of whom responded warmly to the father-daughter dynamic captured in the video clips, as well as to James’ evident affection for his daughter as she enters a new phase of her education. The tone of the post, blending playful protectiveness with genuine encouragement, echoed sentiments James has expressed in previous public remarks about raising his children amid the pressures that come with growing up in a high-profile family.

Celebrity parents sharing back-to-school moments on social media has become an increasingly common tradition among high-profile athletes and entertainers, offering a relatable touchpoint for fans even as their public lives remain largely defined by their professional accomplishments. For James, who has built one of the most recognizable personal brands in American sports over more than two decades in the NBA, such posts have become a familiar part of his online presence, alongside the coverage of his ongoing career milestones and business ventures.

James enters this NBA season continuing to navigate the later stages of a playing career that has already cemented his place among the greatest players in the sport’s history. Off the court, he has continued to build out a broader portfolio of business and media interests, including ventures in production, marketing and youth sports initiatives, several of which have centered on providing opportunities for young people, an area of continued personal interest for James given his own background.

James has previously spoken about the importance of family stability and structure in his own life, having often referenced his mother’s efforts to provide for him during a challenging childhood in Akron, Ohio, before basketball provided a pathway to a dramatically different life for James and, eventually, his own children. That personal history has frequently informed the way James discusses fatherhood publicly, often emphasizing themes of protection, encouragement and presence in his children’s lives.

Wednesday’s back-to-school post fits into that broader pattern, with James using the caption to affirm his daughter’s individuality and offer encouragement as she begins a new academic year, while also signaling, in characteristically playful language, his protective instincts as her father.

Neither James nor his family has provided additional public details about Zhuri’s school or academic interests beyond what was shared in the post itself, consistent with the family’s general approach of sharing selective, celebratory moments on social media while keeping most other details of their children’s day-to-day lives private.

The post adds to a growing collection of similar milestones James has shared publicly over the years as his children have grown, from early childhood photos to more recent updates marking their progress through school and, in the case of his sons, their respective basketball careers. Fans have often responded enthusiastically to these glimpses into the James family’s personal life, with Wednesday’s post following that same pattern of warm public reception.

As the new school year gets underway, James is expected to continue balancing his ongoing NBA career with his public role as a father, a dynamic that has remained a consistent thread throughout his time as one of basketball’s most closely followed public figures both on and off the court.

Uber is cutting more than 3,000 jobs worldwide as part of a major overhaul designed to shrink management layers and refocus spending on its core business.

The cuts amount to roughly 10% of its global workforce, bringing staffing back to levels last seen in 2021.

Chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi told staff in a company email that the taxi and delivery firm had expanded quickly but accumulated too many layers and small teams that slowed decision‑making.

He said the reductions would put Uber, which has its global head office in San Francisco, US, in a better position for its “biggest opportunities ahead of us”.

The move marks one of Uber’s largest restructurings in years and signals a shift towards a leaner operating model.

Shares rose nearly 2% after the announcement, with investors appearing to welcome the proposals.

Cuts affect both managers and non-managers, and Uber said it plans to fold many of its smallest teams into larger groups, however, the firm has not confirmed the locations most affected by job cuts.

Such changes are intended to make Uber “simpler” and “faster,” while freeing up money to reinvest in areas it considers central to its future, Khosrowshahi said.

The restructuring comes as Uber steps up investment in autonomous vehicle partnerships and expands its ride‑hailing, delivery, and robotaxi operations.

Uber is also tightening up its office strategy, asking nearly all employees to work in person at designated hubs and limiting remote roles to about 1%.

Analysts said the layoffs could generate up to $2bn in annual savings.

Unlike many large technology companies that have cut jobs amid heavy spending on artificial intelligence (AI), Uber had avoided major reductions since the pandemic.

The latest changes bring its workforce back to just under 30,000 people, roughly where it stood before its most recent period of expansion.

Knight Frank has announced the sale of Network House on behalf of its client Columbia Threadneedle Investments

A modern warehouse in Leeds has been snapped up by new owners for an undisclosed sum. Network House in south Leeds has been sold after a deal was struck by Knight Frank’s Yorkshire industrial and logistics team, on behalf of its client Columbia Threadneedle Investments.

The warehouse has been bought by Wilson Power Solutions, which specialises in manufacturing electrical transformer equipment. The company is based close by, off Westland Square in the Beeston area of south Leeds.

The impressive 67,760 sq ft modern warehouse in Middleton Grove was fully refurbished by Columbia Threadneedle Investments in 2023 and is said to be one of the most energy efficient properties on the market, with a full solar roof and EPC A+ rating.

Iain McPhail, partner in Knight Frank’s industrial property and logistics team, said: “This significant deal is a strong indication that the Yorkshire industrial property market remains resilient.

“Network House, which was extensively refurbished throughout and with headquarter-style offices was always going to attract interest in the market, especially given its proximity to both Leeds city centre and Yorkshire’s excellent motorway network.

“This deal has also been a real team effort on all sides, and it has been a pleasure working with our clients at Columbia Threadneedle Investments, CMS UK Solicitors, and GV&Co, who acted for the purchaser.”

Tom Goode of GV& Co adde: “It was a pleasure to act for long-standing client Wilson Power Solutions on acquiring Network House. Network House offered a unique opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished building, close to their current HQ, that will be integral to the next phase of growth for the business”.

Knight Frank acted for Columbia Threadneedle Investments and GV&Co acted for Wilson Power Solutions.

The only thing that will hit harder than the tackles on NFL Sundays this season is the fans’ wallets. 

Michael J. Wolf, the co-founder and CEO of Activate Consulting, a leading strategy and consulting firm, said that the NFL has an affordability issue when it comes to fans being able to watch games. 

“It is a big affordability issue, and it’s just coming down to the value of teams versus the value of the viewer. And so, essentially, what we’re taking is we’re taking NFL, which is really one the few things that drives people to watch sports and across all these services, and we’re getting people to pay for it,” Wolf said during a recent appearance on FOX Business’ “Mornings with Maria.”

Activate estimated that the total cost for fans to watch NFL games this season will be $1,400 a year. While basic cable will give fans a good amount of football, they won’t be able to watch all games without subscribing to the requisite streaming services. 

“There’s a big affordability issue in you have to have a large number of services to watch everything. You would get roughly 15 hours of NFL a week if you just have basic cable and an antenna. But to get the full package, you’re going to need basic cable plus the stations plus the NFL Sunday ticket,” Wolf said. 

Wolf cited the licensing fees for all sports leagues, not just the NFL, which force leagues to maximize their value. 

“Well, the NFL — each of the leagues are doing everything they can to maximize the value. So, the US sports leagues, the license fees are roughly 33 billion a year and a third of that is from the NFL. The forecasts are that we’re going to go from 11 billion a year to almost 20 billion from the NFL,” Wolf said.

In addition to the exorbitant costs for NFL fans to watch all the games, Wolf said another point of consternation is how complex it is to find them. Fans don’t know which streaming service or channel a game is on, despite paying for the services needed to watch it.

For example, in Week 1, the NFL will broadcast games on five different networks and platforms. The league will open with a nationally televised game Wednesday night, a Super Bowl rematch between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks on NBC.

The second game of the season is a massive NFC West rivalry game between the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams Thursday. The game will be played in Australia and broadcast on Netflix.

Sunday afternoon, all the games will be broadcast on FOX and CBS, with “Sunday Night Football” on NBC. The final prime-time game of Week 1, “Monday Night Football” between the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos, will be broadcast on ESPN. 

Week 2 will begin with the Detroit Lions and the Buffalo Bills playing on Thursday on the opening night of the Bills’ brand-new stadium. The game will be broadcast on Amazon Prime Video. 

Not exactly easy or cheap, for fans to watch.
