He Got Game (1998)
Despite it’s flaws, a solid father/son drama and easily one of the best films involving the sport ever made. Non-fans will require patience.

It would be a great film if Romero hadn’t already made it better 35 years ago. Still a fresh approach to the re-do of the genre he created.
