Few things are more wholesome than sibling loyalty, and Fred VanVleet's brother is the rising NBA star's biggest fan.

Darnell VanVleet, who looks eerily similar to his younger brother, has never backed down from an opportunity to praise Freddie's abilities. 

In fact, the older sibling's Instagram is basically just a collection of adorable memories of the two and a timeline to where success has taken them.

The two of them can be seen flying planes, riding cars and even standing side by side throughout the years.

"We Use 2 Share 1 Pack Of Noodles Now We Driving Half a Million Dollar Cars," reads the caption of one photo.

Darnell even uses Fred's famous motto "Bet On Yourself," as a hashtag. 

His latest post, a picture of him and Freddie in a private jet, comes as rumours swirl about where the 26-year-old will play next season.

VanVleet is currently a highly-valued free agent with multiple offers on the table. The beloved Raptor made it clear last week that he is "looking to get paid" and is open to leaving Toronto if the price is right.
