The NBA isn't just full of stars — it's full of sibling rivalries and family legacies.

Across the league, several sets of brothers are carving out their own paths, from established superstars to rising young prospects hoping to make their mark.

Some siblings have become household names. Brothers Stephen Curry and Seth Curry are now teammates on the Golden State Warriors, while the Antetokounmpo family has produced multiple NBA players, including brothers Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thanasis Antetokounmpo.

Others, like brothers Ron Harper Jr. and Dylan Harper, are just beginning to write the next chapter of their family's basketball legacy. Dylan's San Antonio Spurs are currently facing the New York Knicks in the 2026 NBA Finals.

From the Currys to the Murrays, here are eight sets of brothers currently playing in the NBA.

Stephen and Seth Curry

Born and raised in Charlotte, N.C., to Sonya Curry and legendary basketball player Dell Curry, Seth and Stephen Curry already had greatness in their blood.

Steph has been with the Golden State Warriors since 2009, when the team drafted him seventh overall. Seth, meanwhile, has bounced around the league.

The brothers, who have both worn No. 30 in honor of their father, made NBA history in 2019 as the first siblings to face each other in a Conference Finals when the Warriors played Seth’s Portland Trail Blazers.

When Seth signed with the Warriors in 2025, however, No. 30 was already claimed by his older brother. He instead chose No. 31 and later joked to reporters, “I tried to buy it from [Steph], but he said he didn’t need the money. I don’t think the NBA would like that either.”

Keegan and Kris Murray

Twin brothers Keegan and Kris Murray grew up playing basketball with each other in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Keegan was selected fourth overall in the first round of the 2022 draft by the Sacramento Kings, while Kris began his career with the Portland Trail Blazers after being drafted in 2023. 

In November 2023, the brothers squared off for the first time ever when the Kings faced the Blazers in Sacramento, Calif.

"This can be weird because we’ve never been on opposite sidelines before, so it’s going to be different. But it’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Having a twin brother be in the NBA, too, it will be fun,” Keegan told Andscape in November 2023.

Giannis and Thanasis Antetokounmpo

Emigrating from Greece to pursue their professional basketball dreams in the United States, the Antetokounmpo brothers have made a name for themselves in the league. Giannis was drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks in 2013 as the 15th overall pick in the first round, while Thanasis was drafted by the New York Knicks in 2014 during the second round. Now, the two both play for the Bucks.

In 2021, they helped the team claim their second NBA championship ever against the Phoenix Suns. Star power forward Giannis, referred to affectionately by fans as the “Greek Freak,” walked away with the season’s MVP title as well.

In a 2021 conversation with retired sportscaster Jim Paschke, Giannis expressed pride in playing with his older brother. “He’s really helping the team. When he comes to the game, he really affects the game with his energy. You can feel him,” he said.

The Greek-Nigerian brothers also have three other siblings — two of whom also played professional basketball, Kostas and Alex. Kostas won an NBA championship with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020 before moving to an Athens-based team, while Alex is a small forward for the Wisconsin Herd in the NBA’s G League.

Moritz and Franz Wagner

German players Moritz and Franz Wagner were both stars of their college basketball team, the University of Michigan’s Wolverines.

Older brother Moritz left the team during his junior year to partake in the 2018 draft, where he was selected by the Lakers in the first round. Younger brother Franz was drafted by the Orlando Magic in the first round of the 2021 draft, and the same year, Moritz reunited with his sibling by signing with the Magic.

To ClutchPoints, Moritz expressed his gratitude for the chance to play with Franz. “I’m just trying to enjoy it every day, embrace it every day. We drive to work together, we live together. That’s not to take for granted, so I embrace that every day,” he said. “You rarely see me not happy about that.”

Tyus and Tre Jones

Basketball prodigies Tre and Tyus Jones played on their high school’s varsity team as eighth graders. From Minnesota, the brothers both had stints playing college basketball at Duke University — Tyus from 2014 to 2015, and Tre from 2018 to 2020.

In the 2015 NBA Draft, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected Tyus with the 24th overall pick before trading him on draft night. Since then, he has suited up for several teams across the league and now plays point guard for the Denver Nuggets.

Tre, four years younger than Tyus, joined the San Antonio Spurs in 2020. In his debut game, he met his brother on the opposite side of the court as the Spurs faced the Grizzlies. 

“I think this will probably be the coolest moment for us, just because it’s one of those things you dream about, since we were little,” Tyus told the St. Paul Pioneer Press ahead of the matchup. “Those dreams are so big that when they actually become true and become a reality, you’re kind of speechless. This will definitely be the coolest moment we’ve shared, for sure, on the basketball court.”

Tre now plays for the Chicago Bulls.

Amen and Ausar Thompson

Twin brothers Amen and Ausar Thompson were selected in the 2023 draft’s first round as the fourth and fifth overall picks, respectively. Amen went to the Rockets and Ausar to the Detroit Pistons. They were the first twins to be chosen as a top 10 pick in the annual draft. 

In January 2024, the brothers from San Leandro, Calif., were on opposing sides of the court for the first time professionally when the Rockets beat the Pistons, 136-113. But because they were on different teams in the youth league Overtime Elite, Amen told NBA.com about their match, “I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfortable — it’s exciting.”

Jalen and Cody Williams

The Williams brothers, who grew up in Gilbert, Ariz., joined the elite group of siblings playing in the NBA when the Utah Jazz selected Cody as the 10th overall pick during the 2024 NBA Draft.

Older brother Jalen was also a standout recruit when he declared for the 2022 draft, with the Oklahoma City Thunder picking the small forward as the 12th overall pick. Before they turned pro, Jalen and Cody had stints playing college basketball at Santa Clara University and the University of Colorado Boulder, respectively.

Speaking to CBS Sports in February 2024, Cody expressed that he would prefer to “play together over against each other.” Jalen echoed the sentiment but added that “it would be cool regardless” of whether they ended up on the same team.

The Thunder star is also hopeful about his brother’s potential in the NBA, telling HoopsHype in June 2024 that he could see his younger brother being a better player than him.

“As a big brother, that’s something that I look forward to seeing,” Jalen said. “I want him to kind of surpass what I do and kind of be greater than what I’m doing, otherwise I’m not doing a good job.”

Ron Harper Jr. and Dylan Harper

Basketball runs in the Harper family. Their father, Ron Harper, won five NBA championships during a 15-year career, and now both of his sons have reached the league. Ron Jr. currently plays for the Boston Celtics, while his younger brother, Dylan, was selected No. 2 overall by the San Antonio Spurs in the 2025 NBA Draft.

The brothers got their first opportunity to face each other during Dylan's rookie season. While Ron provided depth for the Celtics, Dylan quickly emerged as a key contributor for the Spurs, helping lead the franchise to the 2026 NBA Finals less than a year after being drafted.
