Shelomi Sanders' bold move paid off—did she prove her dad wrong with her stellar performance?

It looks like this season is all about the Sanders. With their sixth win, they’ve secured a bowl berth and climbed to No. 20 in the first CFP rankings, a far cry from last year’s disappointing 4-8 record. However, Deion Sanders and his boys are not the only Sanders making headlines. Even Shelomi Sanders has also made a significant impact, particularly with her impressive debut against the Oakwood Ambassadors. Her performance not only gave an edge to the team, commanding a victory of 96-50, but also showcased her hold in the game. Now how can this moment get missed out on getting much-needed hype from Shelomi’s forever supporter?

On November 7, Alabama A&M guard Shelomi Sanders’ beloved mother, Pilar Sanders, took to her Instagram account to share her appreciation towards Shelomi’s incredible performance for the Alabama A&M team, saying, “Once you know in/about yourself and you keep pushing, everyone else’s beliefs won’t matter. They’ll see what we’ve been knowing for years!” In the video, Bossy was scoring a precise shot for Alabama, displaying her top-notch gameplay. Shelomi not only gave an edge to her team in the game but also showed what she is actually capable of. And how can that not make a mother proud?

Pilar Sanders is an incredible support system for Shelomi Sanders, always uplifting her daughter at every instance. Even when Shelomi decided to enter the transfer portal after her time at Colorado University, Pilar was the sole person who stood by her side. She encouraged Shelomi, saying, “You gotta put you first, baby.” And when she finally made her big move, Pilar supported her daughter when her father, Deion Sanders, was unhappy with her decision. Now, it seems that all of their efforts have paid off.

Shelomi Sanders is emerging as a formidable player this season. She not only showcased impressive defensive skills against the Oakwood Ambassadors but also played a crucial role in helping her team maintain their lead. With 14 points, one rebound, and an assist, Shelomi demonstrated why she is referred to as “Bossy” by Deion Sanders. After a challenging year with the Colorado team, her performance this year highlights the necessity of a change. Even Coach Prime couldn’t help but express his admiration for Shelomi after witnessing her jaw-dropping execution.

Prime Time on Shelomi Sanders’ big debut

Coach Prime and Shelomi Sanders had their own differences over her sudden switch to the Alabama A&M team over Colorado. Deion Sanders couldn’t let go of the fact that his daughter actually chose some other team over his. Sanders even called Shelomi’s choice “stupid” after she entered the transfer portal. But then, in the end, he is also a father who loves his little girl with all his heart. Even after displaying his dissatisfaction on various occasions over this fact, Deion Sanders took no time to shower Shelomi with praise and appreciation after her spectacular performance.
