There are two good news here. Sports fans can get their teeth into a new sports movie. The title is Hustle – the top of the basket in French – and it is about basketball.
Second good news. Adam Sandler plays the lead role. The actor, notably recognized for his classic Happy Gilmore, will offer a serious role this time.
No way for Adam Sandler to stand in front of baseballs to toughen up!
The real ones know!
“She’s going to hoe the garden!” »
Ok let’s stop because we can continue this Waterbury delirium for a long time.
In this role, Adam Sandler embodies a recruiter who tries to access the spheres of the NBA.
Sandler is counting on a small nugget from Spain who also aspires to the NBA as a player.
The talented player stands out in street basketball. We recognize here the Hollywood touch of mixing urban success with that of a professional player.
Will the tandem succeed in its mission?
Juancho Hernangomez plays the role of the basketball player.
Queen Latifah is also featured in this film.
There are also NBA stars. Notably, Kyle Lowry who won a championship with the Raptors in 2019.
The former player now an analyst, Kenny Smith, also plays a role.
If the credibility news is not high enough for you, we add that Lebron James was also part of the production team for a film.
Sandler’s love of basketball is not new. We’ve all seen him performing at a gym around the corner in a Youtube video.
Our favorite thing about Sandler is his bakset player outfit. The dryfit t-shirt mode, very little for Gilmore. Instead, he prefers the telecommuting style after two years of the pandemic.
