Deion Sanders Jr. is setting the standards for being an ‘Uncle’ now that his sister Deiondra Sanders has confirmed the rumors of her pregnancy. As she has the time of her life on the coasts of Sint Maarten with her baby daddy Jacquees, her brother Deion Sanders Jr. is back home in Colorado, defending Deiondra’s on-the-way baby.

When Deion Sanders Jr. got into a banter with Travis Hunter, he hardly anticipated the turn it would take. Travis Hunter was reveling teasing his bro Buckey through his hilarious banter with him about Deiondra Sanders’ unborn baby. The two were initially joking about Deiondra’s to-be baby’s height. “Going to be 5’2,” Hunter said, barely able to speak between his fits of laughter. Sanders Jr. was enjoying his part then, adding further to the Deiondra’s future baby’s roast, saying, “No 5’2? he might not even pass 5.” Deiondra Sanders stands 5 feet 6 tall while her boyfriend Jacquees is around 5 feet 4.

Yet, the news of her entering a healthy 7th month of pregnancy was purely ‘a miracle’ for her, expressing her gratitude towards God, a deeply shared core value in the Sanders’ house.
