right now i think jason is better cause he is more confident , he's been in nba finals 2 times,and jarron's injury makes jason better than jarron too.

Out of the Grants, Horace was the better of the two. I think there was another pair of NBA twins, but their names escape me.

Than of course there's plain brothers like Brent and Jon Barry. There was a thing about that in a magazine I read a while ago, I'll try to find it later.

Don't forget Drew Barry, who had short stints with Seattle and Atlanta. We all know about Dale and Antonio Davis, Chuck and Wesley Person, and Shandon and Willie Anderson - none of them twins, but still brothers. Still can't remember the names of those other NBA twins though.

Yeah, I probably heard someone say "They're not brothers" back in the Indiana days, but I heard it as "They are brothers", a misconception I've held until now.

Add Mark and Brent Price to the list of "Not NBA twins, but NBA brothers". I know those two are definitely brothers. :wink:

I forgot about them. They did indeed play together for one year in Orlando, that year being 98/99, the lockout season.

Dick Vanarsedale! He played for New York at one time. Plus the Wilkins Brothers, I don't know if they were mentioned.

Perhaps I'm thinking of them. I've got a tape from Pontel, Chicago vs Washington in the 92/93 season, which of course features Horace vs Harvey. One of the commentators mentioned brothers who used to play in the NBA - it could have been them.

Plus the Wilkins Brothers, I don't know if they were mentioned.


Kobe4mvp mentioned them. :)
