In February, Vanessa and Natalia attended USC's game against the UCLA Bruins. The Trojans defeated UCLA 71-60 following a 38-point, 11-rebound night from JuJu Watkins. Natalia cheered for USC, where she goes to college.

Natalia supports USC, but Gigi Bryant, who died in 2020, supported the Connecticut Huskies.

Following UConn's national championship win on Sunday, Vanessa posted a message conveying Gigi's support for the team.

"Gigi would've loved being there with you. 'When you think you can't, UCONN' ~ Gianna Bryant,'" Vanessa wrote on Instagram.
