First Families of Hoops: Rick Barry and Bill Walton Leave Legacy

If youngest brother Marshall Plumlee improves as much as Duke siblings Mason and Miles, they could combine with their father, former Tennessee Tech frontcourter Perky, to comprise one of most influential families in college basketball history.

Who are 10 of the top groups of hoop sons stemming from Big Daddy? The following list is likely to change next year because of Grant's Army after former Oklahoma All-American Harvey Grant had a third son sign with a major school - Jerai (Clemson), Jerian (Notre Dame) and Jerami (Syracuse recruit). Until then, the "HoopDaddys" comprised of college players who had at least three sons also go on to compete in a significant way at a similar level include:
