Abraham can be no one's sister.
Sarah was his wife, and was his half sister.
Genesis 20:12 - "And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife."

Abraham is Sarah's half-brother. The verses are Genesis 20:12.
The uncle thing is some interpretation apologists try to make so that Sarah isn't his half-sister, just his niece.

Just to clarify: you want to know where in the bible it states that Abraham is a sister and an uncle? Not going to find that Ace.

Abram in Egypt
10 Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to live there for a while because the famine was severe. 11 As he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai, "I know what a beautiful woman you are. 12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, 'This is his wife.' Then they will kill me but will let you live. 13 Say you are my sister, so that I will be treated well for your sake and my life will be spared because of you."
genesis 18
23 On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or bought with his money, every male in his household, and circumcised them, as God told him. 24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised, 25 and his son Ishmael was thirteen; 26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were both circumcised on that same day. 27 And every male in Abraham's household, including those born in his household or bought from a foreigner, was circumcised with him.
and finaly gen 20 again egypt.
11 Abraham replied, "I said to myself, 'There is surely no fear of God in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.' 12 Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father though not of my mother; and she became my wife. 13 And when God had me wander from my father's household, I said to her, 'This is how you can show your love to me: Everywhere we go, say of me, "He is my brother." ' "
