Deion Sanders’ daughter sends curious message about Bronny James’ NBA recruitment

Deiondra Sanders, the eldest daughter of Colorado head football coach Deion Sanders, shared a curious take on LeBron James’ son Bronny, who was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers with the No. 55 overall pick in the 2024 NBA draft.

“Bronny was drafted by the Lakers” Deiondra prefaced before saying“I love seeing that lol. You can’t tell me that heritages and last names don’t matter. »

Deiondra’s stance came as ESPN analyst Adrian Wojnarowski offered a rebuttal to accusations of nepotism surrounding LeBron and his eldest son.

“I don’t want to hear accusations, people talking about nepotism,” Woj said“The NBA is full of nepotism. Ownership, management, coaching. I don’t want to hear about that all of a sudden because Bronny James’ dad plays for the Lakers. It’s rampant in this league.”

Shedeur Sanders rightfully earned his position as Big 12’s best quarterback and one of the top three QBs in the country heading into the 2024 season. He never had the kind of down year Bronny had before being drafted by his father’s franchise.

But that’s not going to stop the similar narrative that many will hit the “Grown QB” with the 2025 NFL Draft.

Shedeur may have received some special treatment from his father, Coach Prime, during the offseason with his freedom to go to the Louis Vuitton fall/winter show in Paris, directed by Pharrell Williams last January, with Shilo . But his skills will allow him to be selected from the start of the premiere.

Shiloh is another story. His growing legal and health issues could lead NFL executives to consider him in the late rounds or as an undrafted free agent. As long as his issues don’t completely derail an NFL career.
