Sibling Thrivalry
The Ultimate Hype Squad
K8 & GINK
The sisters known as the Internet! 👯♀️
In high school, Gink and I owned the field hockey turf as the dynamic goalie duo. Flashback to grade school, where we were soccer legends, with Dad 🧬 chilling in the VW bus, eating a Nicolo’s bread, and cheering us on like a boss. Shoutout to Molar 🦷 for igniting our love for football and March Madness. It's those family vibes that powered our victories and created an unforgettable sports journey.

The Sibling Edition 🏆
Is the Detroit Lions game on yet?! Let’s get to 144dB.
Here’s how many sibs played on prof sports team in 2023:
NHL: 61
NBA: 28
NFL: 21
MLB: 8
WNBA: 6
^^ K8’s offended the article didn’t mention the Ball brothers 😍!!!!
Amon-Ra & Equanimeous St. Brown
They adopted the name St. Brown so it’d look cooler on jerseys.
Equanimeous is like good soul music. Osiris is like good jazz, smooth jazz. Amon-Ra is good rap.
Jason & Travis Kelce
There are many stories of the Kelce family supporting each other. Our fav is why Travis picked 87 as his number.
The McCollum Twins
They’ve been playing football together up until their NFL journeys started.
Most of the time you get your brother’s clothing, it’s a hand-me-down. Here, it’s super-cool twin-brother jersey swap for Zyon and Tristin McCollum, from the Bucs’ Instagram.

Purdue women's basketball
The team roster has 13 players. 6 of them are sisters.
Coco Gaitley [Kyle’s mom] and her two sisters, Stephanie and Courtney played in the same game during the 1981-82 season, with Coco on FDU's side and Stephanie and Courtney playing for Villanova. The game marked the first time in NCAA history that three sisters participated in the same game.
In the dynamic world of professional sports, the bond of siblings creates a deeper connection that ties athletes together. From shared childhood dreams to supporting each other through injuries and setbacks, these athletes navigate the complexities of their careers with a built-in support system. The victories on the field become even sweeter when celebrated with family who have been part of the journey since the beginning.
Even if you're an only child, don't have a great sibling dynamic, or whatever—that's why LAVA BRO exists to be your hype squad for a job interview, a walk, or conquering a challenge, turning those moments into unforgettable memories.
High five to that person, by blood and by choice—who sticks with you through the mud, making small wins shine and the journey extraordinary.
