Lauren Betts is making waves in the world of women’s college basketball. Standing at a dominant 6’7″, the UCLA Bruins’ center is a powerhouse on the court. But behind every great athlete is a support system, and in Lauren’s case, that support comes from an incredibly athletic family.
If you think Lauren is the only Betts destined for greatness, think again—her siblings are just as formidable. Let’s see who they are.
Lauren Betts’ Family Built for Basketball Greatness
Betts was born on Oct. 15, 2003, in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain, but grew up in the basketball hotbed of Centennial, Colo. Her parents, Andrew and Michelle Betts, were both standout athletes in their own right.
Her father, Andrew, played professional basketball overseas for 14 years, standing at a towering 7’1″. Her mother, Michelle, was a volleyball star at Long Beach State, winning a national championship in 1993. Athletic excellence clearly runs deep in the Betts family, and Lauren has never had to look far for inspiration.
With parents like that, it’s no surprise that Lauren’s siblings have also inherited some serious sports genes. Let’s meet the next generation of Betts athletes who are making their own names in the game.
Sienna Betts: Lauren’s younger sister, Sienna Betts, is quickly becoming a household name in high school basketball circles. Standing at 6’4″, Sienna is a force to be reckoned with as a power forward and one of the top recruits in the Class of 2025.
She currently plays for Grandview High School in Aurora, Colo., the same program that Lauren dominated before heading to Stanford (before transferring to UCLA).
Sienna recently made waves by committing to play college basketball at UCLA, setting up what could be a dynamic sister duo in the Bruins’ frontcourt. Her decision reportedly brought their mother, Michelle, to tears—especially because Sienna will wear jersey No. 16, the same number her mother wore during her volleyball career.
Dylan Betts: If you thought Lauren and Sienna were tall, wait until you hear about their younger brother, Dylan Betts. At just 15 years old, Dylan already stands at a jaw-dropping 7’2″ and has been turning heads at Cherry Creek High School in Colorado.
Dylan is still in the early stages of his basketball journey, but with his size, potential, and the wealth of knowledge within his family, it’s only a matter of time before he becomes a major prospect in the recruiting world.
Watching Dylan develop is like seeing a basketball prodigy in the making, and if he follows in his father’s footsteps, he could have a long and successful career ahead.
Ashton Betts: Little is publicly known about the youngest Betts sibling, Ashton, but if family history is any indication, he’s likely growing up surrounded by competitive energy and plenty of basketball drills.
Whether he chooses to follow his older siblings into the sport or forges his own path, one thing’s for sure: the Betts name is already cemented in the world of athletics.
The Betts Family Legacy
It’s rare to see an entire family filled with elite athletes, but the Betts have built something special.
Lauren’s dominance at UCLA is just one part of a bigger picture—her siblings are carving out their own paths and adding to the family’s rich athletic history.

What makes the Betts family unique isn’t just their height or raw talent but their deep commitment to each other. Lauren has already established herself as a star in women’s college basketball, but she’s far from the only Betts making headlines.
As the years go by, we might see an entire generation of Betts siblings dominating college basketball—and maybe even the professional ranks. So, if you’re a basketball fan, keep an eye on the Betts name—it’s going to be around for a long, long time.
