Deion Sanders’ daughter Shelomi Sanders is a familiar face in the Buffs women’s basketball team. The young guard didn’t get to play much this season. She only suited up for five games and spent a short time on the court, just 11 minutes. Despite that, she was a great teammate to the Buffs. She helped the team by scoring some points, grabbing rebounds, and cheering them on during their big wins.

Shelomi and the team built a firm foundation during the regular season, earning an impressive 21-8 record. This further pushed them into both the Pac-12 and NCAA tournaments. They also made a strong showing in the Pac-12, reaching the quarterfinals. They started the Pac tournament with a historic 49-point win over the Oregon Ducks. They continued this streak even in the NCAA tournament by winning over Kansas State and Duke. Unfortunately, their winning streak ended with a narrow 68-69 loss to Caitlin Clark’s team in the Sweet 16. Now, we’ll have to wait and see if Shelomi’s new team will offer her the playing time she seeks to showcase her skills. Till then, share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
