The Lopez brothers are reportedly back together.
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, the Milwaukee Bucks signed Robin Lopez. He joins Milwaukee two days after Brook agreed to return on a two-year, $48 million deal.
It’s not the first time the twins will play on the same team. They teamed up at Stanford and both spent the 2019-20 season in Milwaukee.

Brook has stayed with the Bucks, winning a championship in his third of five seasons. He’s reinvented his game as a potent outside shooter and averaged 15.9 points, 6.7 rebounds, and a career-high 2.5 blocks per game last season.
On the other hand, Robin has since played for three different teams. He most recently made his ninth NBA stop for the Cleveland Cavaliers, where the 7-footer recorded 3.0 points and 1.4 rebounds in 37 games.
While used to playing on the same side, the siblings set all brotherly love aside as opponents. When Milwaukee faced Cleveland last December, Robin mocked his brother’s turnover and told a referee that Brook flopped, citing his twin’s past acting experience when playing Officer Krupke in West Side Story.
Reunited as teammates, Robin gives Milwaukee’s bench some size and depth behind Brook, who averaged his most minutes (30.4) since 2015-16 in 78 games. The Bucks led the Eastern Conference with 58 wins last season before suffering a shocking first-round playoff exit to the Miami Heat.
