Coach Prime is jealous of Desi Banks. As a Stephen Curry fan, it’s only natural for Deion Sanders to envy the comedian. Now, you may wonder why. Remember almost a month ago? Banks got Steph to sign a pair of his Nike White Forces. And despite getting special treatment from LeBron James himself, the veteran coach is expressing his emotions over a pair of signed shoes.

Deion Sanders, Desi Banks, and comedian Ms. Pat appeared for a hearty chat on Tubi’s We Got Time Today. During the conversation, Banks told the host about the viral moment when he got the Golden State Warriors superstar to look beyond Under Armour for once. “He signed a shoe of mine, a White Forces. That’s the only pair out that’s out there.” Of course, a pair of Nike shoes, signed by the Stephen Curry- a rare piece of jewel, might I add.

“I’m jealous right now, ” Coach Prime revolted. “You know why I’m jealous? Because I’ve sent you every pair of shoes. That’s why I’m jealous.” Sanders is also signed under Nike, however, he doesn’t have an exclusive pair with Stephen Curry‘s mark on it. “And you talk about Steph Curry signing a pair of White Forces and I don’t have a pair of shoes that you don’t have,” the 57-year-old legend added.

Deion Sanders still doesn’t have a pair of Nike White Forces signed by his favorite hoopster, Stephen Curry. Besides, LeBron James has paid tribute to the football legend through a pair of kicks. But, that seems just not enough.

Stephen Curry has yet to pull a Deion Sanders tribute as LeBron James did

Stephen Curry leads the charge for the $3.35 billion brand Under Armour, showing unwavering dedication to his role. So much so, that when Desi Banks got him to sign his White Forces, the Baby-Faced Assassin made it clear that this was just a one-time affair. Meanwhile, LeBron James is the face of Nike and that’s how things have been for a while now. Just like Steph, Bron fiercely supports the brand which has been a business blessing for him.

LeBron James knows how to turn heads, both on the court and with his kicks. Thanks to his lifetime deal with Nike, when the Akron Hammer dreams up a sneaker, the swoosh delivers. Last season, he rocked the Nike LeBron 21 in a parade of jaw-dropping colorways, some nodding to Deion Sanders‘ classic Nike Air DT Max ’96.

The King had been at it again, teasing fans with a fresh player-exclusive on his Instagram. This time, the Nike LeBron 21 paid tribute to Deion Sanders and Ohio State with a scarlet-and-grey masterpiece. But the kicker is—Nike isn’t done yet. Word on the street is the Deion-inspired LeBron 21 will hit shelves later this year in limited numbers. Sadly, the Ohio State edition? That one’s staying locked in the vault.
