Deion Sanders was born on August 9, 1967, in Fort Myers, Florida, to Connie and Mim Sanders. When he was two years old, his parents got a divorce, which was a big change in his life. After his father left, his mother and stepfather, Willie Knight, took care of him. Even with these problems at the start, Sanders showed a lot of potential.
Sanders started playing sports seriously when he was eight years old, with the unwavering help of his parents. This would set the tone for the rest of his career. He really showed off his skills in high school, where he was named to the all-state teams in football, baseball, and basketball. It was on the basketball court where he became famous. After scoring 30 points, his teammates called him "Prime Time," a name that would become famous.
