The series is based on the early life of the two-time NBA champion and his childhood basketball experiences. The show explores the world of Amateur Athletic Union basketball in Washington, D.C., along with the players, their families and coaches who walk the fine line between dreams and ambition, and opportunism and corruption. Off the court, the show reveals what it’s like for aspiring athletes growing up in America.
