What more at this point has to be said about LeBron James? He is a winner on the basketball court and his business moves indicate he plans to go hard in the paint outside of the hardwood as well.
His latest project – a television show at NBC about a woman head coach of a men’s team.
According to Deadline, the show’s tentative name is “Hoops” and centers around Stevie Decker, who had a storied career as a player and coach in the WNBA and decides to return to her collegiate alma mater to coach the men’s basketball team.
Both Decker and her school are going through the ringer. Her career is having an effect on her family and the school is going through a sex scandal involving a former coach, who happens to be Decker’s mentor.
The show is the second from LeBron’s SpringHill Entertainment to head to NBC as he is also producing a show based around Ben Simmons of the Philadelphia 76ers.
