Early life

Adams was born on July 24, 1993 in Sherman, Texas to Brent and Shari Adams. The family relocated to Bells, Texas when Lucas was only two years old. Both of his parents were college athletes. Adams has two older sisters, Audrie and Brittnie. He grew up with aspirations of being a professional athlete or an actor. He earned all district honors for football, basketball and baseball in high school and was recruited out of high school for baseball. Adams planned in college, on the condition that received a full-scholarship, otherwise, he would try his hand at acting. When school didn't offer what he wanted, Adams got his parents blessing to pursue acting and relocated to Los Angeles where his sister Brittnie resided. Adams said it was a culture shock in comparison to his small town with one stop light and no crosswalks. He drove a big U-Haul truck for his sister's job which he admits helped him get accustomed to the road.
