Name some Professional Sports Relatives.
Like 2nd Generation Athletes. No matter the Pro Sports. They can be in different Sports, and/or Siblings.

Kobe Bryant -- His Father is Joe Bryant, who played for the Sixers, Clippers and Rockets.
Joe also played abroad and coached both in the U.S. and abroad.

Joakim Noah's (Basketball) Father is Yannick Noah, Tennis Pro.
And his Father was Zacharie Noah, Pro Soccer Player.

Andre Agassi's father was, I think, a wrestler

Jaylen's dad is a pretty mediocre boxer with a bogus heavyweight "championship". Still, I would NOT want to be punched by the guy. :) And of course Kyrie and Jayson had dads who played pro ball at not the highest level.

And ... how could I forget the Sabonis family?

Sorry. I don't feel like bothering. Happy to stay out of your thread, however.
