UCLA star Lauren Betts' sister Sienna reacts to San Antonio Spurs picking Carter Bryant

Sienna Betts shared her reaction to Carter Bryant being drafted by the Spurs in the NBA.

On Friday, the Spurs' Instagram page shared a post showing moments from the overall second pick, Dylan Harper, and Bryant's NBA draft. Harper, in a black suit, can be seen posing with the Spurs' cap and T-shirt. He can also be seen cheering off-stage and repeatedly saying "I'm very happy," as he expressed his feelings about the draft.

In two words, Sienna Betts congratulated the forward on the draft.

"Congrats Carter!" she commented on the post.

Sienna Betts' comment on the Spurs' pick

Carter Bryant, selected 14th overall by the Spurs in the 2025 NBA Draft, is a 6-foot-8, 3-and-D wing with great defensive instincts and high upside.

Though at Arizona, he averaged 6.5 points and 4.1 rebounds off the bench, his 37.1% shooting from deep and perimeter defense caught the attention of scouts. With a nearly 7-foot wingspan and ability to block three-point shots, he brings the kind of defensive versatility the Spurs have lacked.

Bryant grew up immersed in basketball, coached by his father through multiple high schools before becoming a McDonald’s All-American at Centennial. Off the court, he’s deeply connected to the deaf community, fluent in ASL, and planning camps to raise awareness and give back.

He has modelled his game after Kawhi Leonard. Paired with Dylan Harper, Stephon Castle, and Victor Wembanyama, Bryant could play an integral part of a lockdown defensive lineup.
