Jeric and Jeron Teng have long proven that athletic excellence can indeed run in the family, serving championships for UST Growling Tigers and DLSU Green Archers, respectively, during their university stints. And now, they are lending their strong talents to a bigger basketball scene, as expected from our favorite sibling duo on the court!

Oops, stop right there, we know what you're thinking: Doesn't this spark rivalry? Sorry to disappoint, but, as far as these player sibs are concerned, such a thing doesn't exist—only pride and closer bond. After all, a family that plays together, stays together, right? Check out who they are in the gallery above!
