Center, to embrace their parents and peek at the game, even if just for a few minutes. “I’m already knowing what we gonna do,” Kaluma said. They haven’t given either sibling a hint of who they’re pulling for. He doesn’t care, he wants to be the best.” Well before his younger brother beat him for the first time as a high school sophomore, Seiko knew. Kaluma couldn’t dribble well, and as an already advanced 15-year-old, Seiko couldn’t stand the sight of it. “When he first started playing basketball, he wasn’t really in love with it,” Seiko said. It’s been a while since Kaluma shot up to tower over his older brother. “We find each other in the same spots.” Even if he wanted to forget, fate continues to put his brother back in front of him. “Just surreal,” Kaluma said moments after Creighton clinched a rematch with SDSU. Seiko drove, and Kaluma headbutted him into stitches and their most memorable battle.

The sixth-seeded Bluejays and the fifth-seeded Aztecs are each seeking their first Final Four when they meet in Sunday’s South Region final. Last year, they met much earlier in the NCAA Tournament. And it’s not the first time each team has stood in the other’s way.

Creighton's Arthur Kaluma and San Diego State's Adam Seiko have faced each other at the N.C.A.A. tournament, and plenty of other times, before.

And after Arthur drew a double team — and a foul — when he posted up Adam in last year’s game, he has reminded Adam that he needed reinforcements to reign him in. Adam, a sixth-year player, is a dependable role player off the bench, who is asked to shoot 3-pointers and defend for the oldest team remaining in the N.C.A.A. As he got older, Arthur watched his older brother — the diligence with which he studied the game and worked in the gym. Soon, they began playing competitive games against each other — and Arthur’s indomitable self-confidence had found a receptacle in which to take root. They have tickets for Sunday’s game in both the San Diego State and Creighton sections, just as they did last year when they switched seats at halftime. “There was never a question of, ‘Oh, maybe just get me a couple years.’ It was, ‘No, I can beat you now.’” Patrick immigrated to the United States from Uganda in the mid-1980s because he no longer felt safe after a change in power. “It’s an amazing experience, watching my brother play and then having the chance to play against him — especially at this level.” By then, she had two boys — Adam, with whom she was pregnant when she came to the United States from Uganda in 1998, and Arthur, who was less than a year old. “We won the game at the end of the day. In this year’s Super Bowl, Philadelphia center Jason Kelce and Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce played against each other when the Chiefs beat the Eagles. As each of Kaluma’s boastful pronouncements — that his brother can’t guard him, that Creighton will win again — were relayed to Seiko, he rolled his eyes.
