It goes without saying that Deion Sanders is not someone who will tolerate disrespect, especially when it comes from his own flesh and blood. Even if it’s just a casual game, no sir, no disrespect allowed. And he makes it clear by pulling out a memorable recollection of a hilarious basketball game with Shedeur Sanders. 

Deion Sanders is a sports phenomenon who played both NFL and MLB. But little do the public know that he was nearly a three-star sport when he was offered the chance to play for the NBA team Atlanta Hawks under GM Stan Kasten who was also the GM for his team Atlanta Braves. He still carries the skills and interest with him which is passed down to Shedeur Sanders.
