00:25Malik! Malik! You got it!
00:27Draft combine! Special approval!
00:32I did it.
00:35Hey, where are you going?
00:38Tell my mom!
00:48What are you doing?
00:50Denise, why isn't your arm healed yet?
00:52Did you ever see a doctor?
00:54It's fine. I'm used to it. I don't want to waste money on treatment.
00:58Malik needs it for his combine.
01:00Well, that's not my problem, is it?
01:02Please, Ben. I'm fine. I won't slow the line down.
01:04You won't? You're moving at half speed.
01:05And this? What the fuck is this?
01:07This place isn't a charity.
01:09If you can't pull your weight like everyone else, you're out. We clear?
01:15Mom!
01:18Mom, great news. They officially let me into the NBA Draft Combine. It starts in two days.
01:24I'm gonna get signed, Mom. I'm gonna put Drywell on the mark.
01:27I never doubted it, Malik. Not since you were five years old shooting at a milk crane.
01:33Malik. Now, listen. How much for the travel?
01:39About 800 bucks. I managed to save it. I'll just skip the team hotel. I'll find a hostel or a
01:46couch. It's fine, Mom.
01:47No. You aren't sharing a room with strangers. You need real sleep if you're gonna play your best.
01:55Ma, stop. You're working three jobs. In your arm, I don't want my dream to cost you everything.
02:00We only need $200 more. Right? Your uncle, Victor, borrowed $200 last year to get Chase those limited edition sneakers.
02:08I'll just get him to pay me back. Let's go find him.
02:14Victor?
02:15Denise, perfect timing. Chase is heading to the Combine. And as his aunt, the least you can do is pitch
02:21in $500 for his new iPhone.
02:23He needs to look the part.
02:25Vic, I...
02:25Come on, Denise!
02:27I'll be a win for the whole family! Don't start acting cheap now!
02:34Malik's leaving tonight, too, so I was hoping you could pay me back the $200 you borrowed for those shoes.
02:40Malik? He didn't even graduate high school.
02:42And you think a gutter rat like him's making the NBA? You're fucking delusional!
02:47Exactly. The kid hasn't even had a single day of professional training.
02:51Why waste money on the Combine when he'll never get drafted?
02:54How could you say that? You really think that's all I am? Fine. I'll prove you both wrong. Just watch.
03:00I'm gonna be the number one pick.
03:02The number one pick? You actually believe that crap? You're begging for $200 just to go get laughed off the
03:09court?
03:09You're shameless!
03:11Damn straight. Now pay up!
03:20What the hell is wrong with you guys? You could've hurt her!
03:23Please, Victor. That's for Malik's Combine trip. He needs it!
03:29When you borrow money, you pay it back.
03:32Who steals from the same people they're in debt to? That's way out of line!
03:38Watch your mouth, you piece of shit!
03:44Whatever. The money's ours now. Who cares what they think?
03:48Come on. Let's go buy Chase that new phone.
03:54Mom, I'll just not go to the Combine. I'll keep working. Save money to fix your hand.
03:59What did you just say?
04:10Mom! Stop! Stop it! Look at me!
04:16Mom.
04:17Malik, this world only respects two kinds of people.
04:21Those born at the top.
04:23And those who fight their way up there.
04:25Basketball is your weapon, Malik!
04:27So use it! Fight with it!
04:29Whatever people say, however hard it gets,
04:31you hold on to it and never let it go.
04:34But Mom, what about your hand?
04:36What are you gonna do while I'm gone for three months?
04:39Forget my hand. Even if my whole body stops working.
04:42I'll make it to the day you come back.
04:48Malik!
04:54Malik!
04:55Malik, I've got some cash saved up from washing cars all these years.
04:58Take it. Use it for the Combine.
05:02Logan, I thought that was for your wedding.
05:04Nah, it's alright, man. We can always postpone it.
05:07Linda's gonna roll her eyes at me, but she'll understand.
05:10I've been saving my tips from waiting tables.
05:13But Andre, what about your tuition?
05:16Aren't you playing for Boise State next year?
05:18Man, my grades suck.
05:20And you've got way more game than I do.
05:21I'll stay here in drywall.
05:22Just go get that number one pick for us.
05:24Alright?
05:31Here's my share, Malik.
05:32Coach, where'd you even get this much?
05:34Wait, did you saw your pickup truck?
05:38That old truck's been with me for 20 years.
05:40Carried me through every chapter of my life.
05:43And now it's gonna carry you one step closer to your dream.
05:45Your mom's right.
05:46You gotta go to the Combine.
05:48And gotta show those scouts what you got.
05:50We all believe in you, Malik.
05:56Thank you all so much.
05:57Thanks, guys.
05:58I'm getting that number one to pick.
06:01You should get going.
06:04Go make us proud, Malik.
06:06I'll be here every Sunday praying for you.
06:12Malik!
06:15Show them how we do it in drywall.
06:17Go get them, Malik.
06:19We're rooting for you.
06:30Malik!
06:47Oh my god, who is that?
06:51That kid's footwork, his hang time, his explosiveness, that's exactly the kind of player we need.
07:10How have I not heard anything about this kid?
07:12Who is that kid?
07:13Why isn't he on the list?
07:15Did some other team bribe you just to hide him from me?
07:19No, Mrs. Barnes, he's just some high school dropout.
07:23A high school dropout?
07:30It's almost like he's flying.
07:49Find out who he is, now.
07:55Thank you for your patience, Malik.
07:57All final evaluations here are closed and confidential.
07:59Now that everything's official, congratulations.
08:03Welcome to the Lakers.
08:04I'm Madeline Barnes.
08:06I'm offering you a rookie contract worth 20 millions a year.
08:09How does that sound?
08:1020 million for a rookie?
08:12That's the highest rookie contract in league history.
08:17But this is real, right?
08:22Of course it is.
08:25I've read your full scouting report, Malik.
08:27You're not just a generational talent.
08:29You're kind, brave, a real character guy.
08:33And with that face?
08:35Heck, your jerseys are going to sell out in minutes.
08:37And rest assured, your contract incentives will reflect that.
08:42What are you waiting for?
08:44Sign with us, Malik.
08:45You know, you're not just this year's number one pick.
08:51You're number one in my heart, too.
09:04If you've got any other conditions, just name them.
09:07Since the whole Lakers team might end up yours with the way things are going.
09:12Mrs. Barnes, I want to build an indoor basketball court in my hometown.
09:16Back in Drywell, my teammates and I only have a dirt lot by the road to play on.
09:20The guys there are full of talent, but since we don't have the resources,
09:23they've never had a fair shot.
09:27See?
09:28The guy's got a heart of gold.
09:30Of course, that won't be a problem.
09:31Lila, you'll take the lead on the construction of the court.
09:34And please, none of this Mrs. Barnes crap.
09:36Call me Madeline.
09:42Thank you, Madeline.
09:46But before I report to the team, is it okay if I take in a trip home first?
09:50I want to tell my mom the good news in person and thank everyone who supported me.
09:54Absolutely.
09:54You can fly there in my private jet.
09:57Only the best for our new star player.
09:59Thank you all.
10:00I'll be off then.
10:00See you later.
10:01Mom, we haven't officially drafted him yet.
10:04What if another team tries to punch him while he's gone?
10:07You're right.
10:08I'll have our G-lead coach pick him up and stay by his side the whole time.
10:12Oh, and call the construction crew and make sure they start work on that court pronto.
10:15All right.
10:16If anyone even tries to take Malik from us, I'll tear them apart myself.
10:26Miss Barnes, thank you for choosing my company for the project.
10:29I assure you we'll build you a professional-grade, state-of-the-art gym.
10:33Hold on.
10:35You pick my company because I know the guy the gym's being built for?
10:44No way.
10:45Could it really be?
10:52Thanks, Madeline.
10:54Oh, and one more thing.
10:55Can we donate a new pair of basketball shoes to every family in my hometown?
10:58We'll tell them it's a gift from the Lakers team owner.
11:01Absolutely.
11:02Oh, my people are going to love that.
11:05I'll get started on it right now.
11:13That's her.
11:13Her son went to the city to play basketball, but he ended up getting arrested for male prostitution.
11:19Heard he was selling his body to old ladies.
11:23God, what a fuck-up.
11:25His mom did everything she could to set him up for success, and he still got sent to the slammer.
11:39Oh, I knew I smelled something cheap.
11:43Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all.
11:47Oh, I knew I smelled things cheap.
11:51Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all.
11:55Isn't that Chase Holloway?
11:56I heard the Lakers' G League team signed him after the combine, and now they're donating a gym to our
12:02town.
12:03Naturally, they picked Chase's dad's company to build it.
12:08Wow, this Chase kid's got a bright future.
12:11Who knows?
12:11Maybe he'll be playing for the Lakers soon.
12:26Hi, Malik.
12:27I'm Eric Coleman, head coach of the Lakers' G League team.
12:30Coach Coleman, it's an honor.
12:31Thank you so much for picking me up.
12:32It's the least I could do.
12:34If you're putting dry well on the map, kid, the folks here should be proud of you.
12:38Hey, I'm just a guy who loves to hoop.
12:41It's about an hour's drive into town.
12:43Ready to hit the road?
12:51All right, everyone, I've got some great news.
12:53Thanks to the generosity of Lakers owner Madeline Barnes, all of you were getting a new pair of shoes today.
13:00And that's not all.
13:01She's also putting $3 million into building us a real basketball gym.
13:06Imagine that, our kids playing on a sparkling professional court.
13:10And plus, this gym will employ more than half of residents in dry well in desperate need of work.
13:15Mrs. Barnes has truly blessed us all.
13:19Now, let's get to the shoes.
13:21Every household gets a pair.
13:22I'll read out the names, so come up when you're called.
13:24Ethan Alberston, Morgan Belmont, Chad Samperson, Jalen Tate, Connor Westbrook, Marcus Young.
13:38That's it.
13:42Father, I didn't hear Malik's name.
13:45Father, she and her son are a disgrace to all of dry well.
13:49People like them deserve to be shamed, not rewarded.
13:52Father, in the name of the Lord, I beg you, help me.
13:59Malik sold his body to old ladies for a quick buck.
14:04The prostitution of any form is both illegal and immoral, and is unworthy of the Lord's blessings, let alone a
14:11pair of sneakers.
14:12Everyone knows he got locked for doing sacks work for old hags.
14:17That's right.
14:18Meanwhile, Chase here got signed by the Lakers' G League squad.
14:21He's the whole reason they're building the gym and giving us these shoes.
14:24He's dry well's real hometown hero.
14:27Malik's lucky.
14:28He doesn't deserve a cousin like him.
14:30Damn.
14:31Didn't think Malik would stoop that low.
14:33My brother gave Malik money when he left.
14:36All for him to end up behind bars.
14:38Malik's my son.
14:39I know him better than anyone, and he's not who you're saying he is.
14:43Everyone who went to the Combine stayed a week, ten days at most.
14:47Malik's been gone for over a month.
14:50What's he still doing there if not rotting away in some jail cell?
14:52Your son breaks the law and disgraces this town, and you've still got the nerve to come ask for a
14:58free pair of shoes?
14:58What if Mrs. Barnes finds out our town produced a delinquent like Malik and pulls the plug on the gym
15:04project?
15:05Who's going to take the blame then, huh?
15:07I just want to get Malik a pair of shoes.
15:09He grew up here just like every other kid, and he's always had a good heart.
15:13Sure, we might not be the richest family around, but that doesn't make my son a failure or a criminal!
15:20Shut your mouth!
15:21Defending that vile boy in front of God like this?
15:24Truly shameless!
15:25I'll throw those shoes in the trash before I give them to your son!
15:32You want the shoes?
15:34Fine.
15:38Then crawl over here and clean them.
15:46Chase, I'm your aunt.
15:48Don't pull the ant card.
15:50My son plays for the Lakers now.
15:52The freaking Lakers donated these shoes because of him.
15:55If you want something from our family, you're going to have to beg for it.
15:59Well, you want these shoes or not, kneel and shine them clean.
16:03Kneel!
16:04Kneel!
16:07Kneel!
16:08Kneel!
16:09Kneel!
16:10Kneel!
16:11Kneel!
16:12Kneel!
16:12Kneel!
16:12Kneel!
16:28Kneel!
16:32Coach, could you all hang back for a moment?
16:33My mom comes here every Sunday to pray for me.
16:35I don't want to overwhelm her with all these people.
16:38Okay, then. Go ahead.
16:55If Malik made mistakes, then I failed him as his mother.
17:00It's my fault. All of it.
17:09Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake! Shake!
17:28Mom!
17:30Who dared to hurt my mom?

18:41It's fine. I'm used to it. I don't want to waste money on treatment. Malik needs it for his combine
18:47Well, that's not my problem is it please Ben. I'm fine. I won't slow the line down
18:51You're moving at half speed and this what the fuck is this?

26:04But this is real, right?
26:09Of course it is

26:54Since the whole Lakers team might end up yours
26:57With the way things are going
26:59Mrs. Barnes
27:00I want to build an indoor basketball court in my hometown
27:02Back in Drywell, my teammates and I only have a dirt lot by the road to play on
27:07The guys there are full of talent
27:09But since we don't have the resources, they've never had a fair shot
27:14See?
27:15The guy's got a heart of gold
27:17Of course, that won't be a problem
27:18Lila, you'll take the lead on the construction of the court

27:48Mom, we haven't officially drafted him yet
27:51What if another team tries to punch him while he's gone?
27:54You're right
27:55I'll have our G-lead coach pick him up and stay by his side the whole time
27:59Oh, and call the construction crew
28:01And make sure they start work on that court pronto
28:02Alright
28:03If anyone even tries to take Malik from us
28:06I'll tear them apart myself
28:13Miss Barnes, thank you for choosing my company for the project
28:15I assure you we'll build you a professional-grade, state-of-the-art gym
28:20Hold on
28:22You picked my company because I know the guy the gym's being built for?
28:32No way
28:32Could it really be?
28:39Thanks, Madeline
28:41Oh, and one more thing
28:42Can we donate a new pair of basketball shoes to every family in my hometown?
28:46We'll tell them it's a gift from the Lakers team owner
28:48Absolutely
28:49Oh, my people are going to love that
28:52I'll get started on it right now
29:00That's her
29:00Her son went to the city to play basketball
29:03But he ended up getting arrested for male prostitution
29:06Heard he was selling his body to old ladies
29:10God, what a fuck-up
29:12His mom did everything she could to set him up for success
29:15And he still got sent to the slammer
29:26Ugh, I knew I smelled something cheap
29:30Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all
29:34Ugh, I knew I smelled things cheap
29:39Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all
29:42Isn't that Chase Holloway?
29:43I heard the Lakers G League team signed him after the combine
29:47And now they're donating a gym to our town
29:50Naturally, they picked Chase's dad's company to build it
29:55Wow, this Chase kid's got a bright future
29:57Who knows, maybe he'll be playing for the Lakers soon
30:13I'm Malik, I'm Eric Coleman
30:14Head coach of the Lakers G League team
30:17Coach Coleman, it's an honor
30:18Thank you so much for picking me up
30:20It's the least I could do
30:21If you're putting dry well on the map, kid
30:23The folks here should be proud of you
30:25Hey, I'm just a guy who loves to hoop
30:29It's about an hour's drive into town
30:30Ready to hit the road?
30:37Alright everyone, I've got some great news
30:40Thanks to the generosity of Lakers owner Madeline Barnes
30:43All of you were getting a new pair of shoes today
30:46And that's not all
30:48She's also putting $3 million into building us a real basketball gym
30:52Imagine that, our kids playing on a sparkling professional court
30:56And plus, this gym will employ more than half of residents in dry well
31:01In desperate need of work
31:02Mrs. Barnes has truly blessed us all
31:06Now let's get to the shoes
31:08Every household gets a pair
31:09I'll read out the names, so come up when you're called
31:13Ethan Alberston
31:14Morgan Belmont
31:16Chad Samperson
31:18Jalen Tate
31:21Connor Westbrook
31:23Marcus Young
31:25That's it
31:29Father, I didn't hear M-M-Malik's name
31:32Father, she and her son are a disgrace to all of dry well
31:36People like them deserve to be shamed
31:37Not rewarded
31:39Father
31:40Father, in the name of the Lord, I beg you
31:42Help me
31:46Malik sold his body to old ladies for a quick buck
31:51The prostitution of any form is both illegal and immoral
31:55And is unworthy of the Lord's blessings
31:57Let alone a pair of sneakers
32:00Everyone knows he got locked for doing sax work for old hags
32:04That's right
32:05Meanwhile, Chase here got signed by the Lakers' G League squad
32:08He's the whole reason they're building the gym and giving us these shoes
32:11He's dry well's real hometown hero
32:14Malik's lucky
32:15He doesn't deserve a cousin like him
32:17Damn, didn't think Malik would stoop that low
32:20My brother gave Malik money when he left
32:23All for him to end up behind bars
32:25Malik's my son
32:26I know him better than anyone
32:28And he's not who you're saying he is
32:30Everyone who went to the Combine stayed a week, ten days at most
32:34Malik's been gone for over a month
32:37What's he still doing there if not rotting away in some jail cell?
32:39Your son breaks the law and disgraces this town
32:42And you've still got the nerve to come ask for a free pair of shoes?
32:46What if Mrs. Barnes finds out our town produced a delinquent like Malik
32:50And pulls the plug on the gym project?
32:52Who's gonna take the blame then, huh?
32:54I just wanna get Malik a pair of shoes
32:56He grew up here just like every other kid
32:58And he's always had a good heart
33:01Sure, we might not be the richest family around
33:03But that doesn't make my son a failure or a criminal
33:07Shut your mouth
33:09Defending that vile boy in front of God like this
33:11Truly shameless
33:13I'll throw those shoes in the trash before I give them to your son
33:19You want the shoes?
33:21Fine
33:25Then crawl over here and clean them
33:32Chase
33:34I'm your aunt
33:35Don't pull the ant card
33:37My son plays for the Lakers now
33:39The freaking Lakers donated these shoes because of him
33:42If you want something from our family, you're gonna have to beg for it
33:46Well, you want these shoes or not
33:48Kneel and shine them clean
33:50Kneel!
33:51Kneel!
33:52LL!
33:53Kneel!
33:56Kneel!
33:57Kneel!
33:58Kneel!
33:59Kneel!
34:11Kneel!
34:19Coach, could you all hang back for a moment?
34:21My mom comes here every Sunday to pray for me
34:22I don't want to overwhelm her with all these people
34:25Okay then, go ahead
34:33Lick the shoes!
34:35Lick the shoes!
34:36Lick the shoes!
34:38Lick the shoes!
34:42Lick the shoes!
34:56Lick the shoes!
35:01Lick the shoes!
35:11M mere
35:15Mom!
35:17Who dared to hurt my mom?
35:59Malik! Malik! You got it! Draft Combine! Special approval!
36:06I did it.
36:10Hey, where are you going? Tell my mom!
36:22What are you doing? Denise, why isn't your arm healed yet? Did you ever see a doctor?
36:29It's fine. I'm used to it. I don't want to waste money on treatment. Malik needs it for his Combine.
36:34Well, that's not my problem, is it?
36:36Please, Ben. I'm fine. I won't slow the line down. I promise.
36:38You won't? You're moving at half speed. And this? What the fuck is this?
36:41This place isn't a charity. If you can't pull your weight like everyone else, you're out. We clear?
36:50Mom!
36:52Mom!
36:53Mom, great news. They officially let me into the NBA Draft Combine. It starts in two days.
36:58I'm going to get signed, Mom. I'm going to put Drywell on the mark.
37:01I never doubted it, Malik. Not since you were five years old shooting at a milk crane. Malik.
37:10Now, listen. How much for the travel?
37:14About 800 bucks. I managed to save it. I'll just skip the team hotel. I'll find a hostel or a
37:20couch. It's fine, Mom.
37:22No. You aren't sharing a room with strangers. You need real sleep if you're going to play your best.
37:28Ma, stop. You're working three jobs. And your arm, I don't want my dream to cost you everything.
37:34We only need $200 more. Right? Your uncle, Victor, borrowed $200 last year to get Chase those limited edition sneakers.
37:42I'll just get him to pay me back. Let's go find him.
37:48Victor?
37:49Denise, perfect timing. Chase is heading to the Combine. And as his aunt, the least you can do is pitch
37:55in $500 for his new iPhone.
37:57He needs to look the part.
37:59Vic, I... Come on, Denise!
38:01I'll be a win for the whole family! Don't start acting cheap now!
38:08Malik's leaving tonight, too, so I was hoping you could pay me back the $200 you borrowed for those shoes.
38:14Malik? He didn't even graduate high school. And you think a gutter rat like him's making the NBA? You're fucking
38:20delusional!
38:21Exactly. The kid hasn't even had a single day of professional training.
38:25Why waste money on the Combine when he'll never get drafted?
38:28How could you say that? You really think that's all I am? Fine. I'll prove you both wrong. Just watch.
38:34I'm gonna be the number one pick.
38:36The number one pick? You actually believe that crap? You're begging for $200 just to go get laughed off the
38:43court?
38:44You're shameless!
38:45Damn straight. Now pay up!
38:54What the hell is wrong with you guys? You could've hurt her!
38:57Please, Victor. That's for Malik's Combine trip. He needs it!
39:03When you borrow money, you pay it back.
39:06Who steals from the same people they're in debt to? That's way out of line!
39:12Watch your mouth, you piece of shit!
39:18Whatever. The money's ours now. Who cares what they think?
39:22Come on. Let's go by Chase that new phone.
39:28Mom, I'll just not go to the Combine. I'll keep working. Save money to fix your hand.
39:33What did you just say?
39:44Mom, stop! Stop it! Look at me!
39:50Mom.
39:51Malik, this world only respects two kinds of people.
39:55Those born at the top. And those who fight their way up there.
39:59Basketball is your weapon, Malik. So use it! Fight with it!
40:03Whatever people say, however hard it gets, you hold on to it and never let it go.
40:08But Mom, what about your hand? What are you gonna do while I'm gone for three months?
40:13Forget my hand. Even if my whole body stops working, I'll make it to the day you come back.
40:22Malik!
40:29Malik, I've got some cash saved up from washing cars all these years. Take it. Use it for the Combine.
40:37Logan, I thought that was for your wedding.
40:39Nah, it's alright man. We can always postpone it. Linda's gonna roll her eyes at me, but she'll understand.
40:44I've been saving my tips from waiting tables.
40:47But Andre, what about your tuition? Aren't you playing for Boise State next year?
40:53Man, my grades suck. And you've got way more game than I do. I'll stay here in Drywall. Just go
40:57get that number one pick for us. Alright?
41:05Here's my share, Malik.
41:06Coach, where'd you even get this much? Wait, did you stall your pickup truck?
41:12That old truck's been with me for 20 years. Carried me through every chapter of my life.
41:17And now it's gonna carry you one step closer to your dream.
41:20Your mom's right. You gotta go to the Combine. And gotta show those scouts what you got.
41:24We all believe in you, Malik.
41:30Thank you all so much.
41:32Thanks guys. I'm getting that number one to pick.
41:35You should get going.
41:38Go make us proud, Malik. I'll be here every Sunday, praying for you.
41:46Malik!
41:49Show them how we do it in Drywall!
41:51Go get em, Malik! We're rooting for ya!
42:21Oh my god! Who is that?
42:26That kid's footwork. His hang time, his explosiveness. That's exactly the kind of player we need.
42:35Oh my god! Who is that?
42:44How have I not heard anything about this kid? Who is that kid? Why isn't he on the list?
42:50Did some other team bribe you just to hide him from me?
42:53No, Mrs. Barnes. He's just some high school dropout.
42:56A high school dropout?
43:04It's almost like he's flying.
43:23Find out who he is. Now.
43:29Thank you for your patience, Malik. All final evaluations here are closed and confidential.
43:33Now that everything's official, congratulations.
43:37Welcome to the Lakers. I'm Madeline Barnes. I'm offering you a rookie contract worth 20 millions a year. How does
43:43that sound?
43:4420 million for a rookie? That's the highest rookie contract in league history.
43:51But this is real, right?
43:56Of course it is.
43:59I've read your full scouting report, Malik.
44:01You're not just a generational talent.
44:03You're kind, brave, a real character guy.
44:07And with that face?
44:09Heck, your jerseys are going to sell out in minutes.
44:12And rest assured, your contract incentives will reflect that.
44:16What are you waiting for?
44:18Sign with us, Malik.
44:19You know, you're not just this year's number one pick.
44:26You're number one in my heart, too.
44:38If you've got any other conditions, just name them.
44:41Since the whole Lakers team might end up yours with the way things are going.
44:46Mrs. Barnes, I want to build an indoor basketball court in my hometown.
44:50Back in Drywell, my teammates and I only have a dirt lot by the road to play on.
44:54The guys there are full of talent, but since we don't have the resources, they've never had a fair shot.
45:02See? The guy's got a heart of gold.
45:04Of course, that won't be a problem. Lila, you'll take the lead on the construction of the court.
45:08And please, none of this Mrs. Barnes crap.
45:11Call me Madeline.
45:19Thank you, Madeline.
45:20But before I report to the team, is it okay if I take a trip home first?
45:24I want to tell my mom the good news in person and thank everyone who supported me.
45:28Absolutely. You can fly there in my private jet.
45:31Only the best for our new star player.
45:33Thank you all. I'll be off then. See you later.
45:36Mom, we haven't officially drafted him yet.
45:38What if another team tries to punch him while he's gone?
45:42You're right. I'll have our G-lead coach pick him up and stay by his side the whole time.
45:46Oh, and call the construction crew and make sure they start work on that court pronto.
45:49All right. If anyone even tries to take Malik from us, I'll tear them apart myself.
46:00Ms. Barnes, thank you for choosing my company for project.
46:03I assure you we'll build you a professional-grade, state-of-the-art gym.
46:07Hold on.
46:09You picked my company because I know the guy the gym's being built for?
46:19No way. Could it really be?
46:26Thanks, Madeline.
46:28Oh, and one more thing. Can we donate a new pair of basketball shoes to every family in my hometown?
46:33We'll tell them it's a gift from the Lakers team owner.
46:35Absolutely.
46:36Oh, my people are going to love that. I'll get started on it right now.
46:47That's her. Her son went to the city to play basketball, but he ended up getting arrested for male prostitution.
46:53Heard he was selling his body to old ladies.
46:57God, what a fuck-up.
46:59His mom did everything she could to set him up for success, and he still got sent to the slammer.
47:13Ugh, I knew I smelled something cheap.
47:17Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all.
47:21Ugh, I knew I smelled things cheap.
47:26Looks like the poorest woman in town made it after all.
47:29Isn't that Chase Holloway?
47:31I heard the Lakers G League team signed him after the combine, and now they're donating a gym to our
47:37town.
47:38Naturally, they picked Chase's dad's company to build it.
47:42Wow, this Chase kid's got a bright future.
47:45Who knows? Maybe he'll be playing for the Lakers soon.
48:00Hi, Malik. I'm Eric Coleman, head coach of the Lakers G League team.
48:04Coach Coleman, it's an honor. Thank you so much for picking me up.
48:07It's the least I could do.
48:08If you're putting dry well on the map, kid, the folks here should be proud of you.
48:12Hey, I'm just a guy who loves to hoop.
48:16It's about an hour's drive into town. Ready to hit the road?
48:25Alright everyone, I've got some great news.
48:27Thanks to the generosity of Lakers owner Madeline Barnes, all of you were getting a new pair of shoes today.
48:34And that's not all. She's also putting three mil dollars into building us a real basketball gym.
48:40Imagine that, our kids playing on a sparkling professional court.
48:44And plus, this gym will employ more than half of residents in dry well in desperate need of work.
48:49Mrs. Barnes has truly blessed us all.
48:53Now let's get to the shoes.
48:55Every household gets a pair. I'll read out the names, so come up when you're called.
48:58Ethan Alberston, Morgan Belmont, Chad Samperson, Jalen Tate, Connor Westbrook, Marcus Young.
49:11That's it.
49:16Father, I didn't hear Malik's name.
49:20Father, she and her son are a disgrace to all of dry well. People like them deserve to be shamed,
49:25not rewarded.
49:26Father, in the name of the Lord, I beg you, help me.
49:33Malik sold his body to old ladies for a quick buck.
49:39The prostitution of any form is both illegal and immoral, and is unworthy of the Lord's blessings, let alone a
49:45pair of sneakers.
49:47Everyone knows he got locked for doing sax work for old hags.

49:56He's the whole reason they're building the gym and giving us these shoes.
49:59He's dry well's real hometown hero. Malik's lucky. He doesn't deserve a cousin like him.
50:05Damn. Didn't think Malik would stoop that low.
50:07My brother gave Malik money when he left. All for him to end up behind bars.
50:12Malik's my son. I know him better than anyone, and he's not who you're saying he is!
50:17Everyone who went to the Combine stayed a week, ten days at most.

50:47Sure, we might not be the richest family around, but that doesn't make my son a failure or a criminal!
50:54Shut your mouth! Defending that vile boy in front of God like this? Truly shameless!
51:00I'll throw those shoes in the trash before I give them to your son!
51:06You want the shoes? Fine.
51:12Then crawl over here and clean them.
51:19Chase, I'm your aunt.
51:22Don't pull the ant card. My son plays for the Lakers now. The freaking Lakers donated these shoes because of
51:29him.
51:29If you want something from our family, you're gonna have to beg for it.
51:33Well, you want these shoes or not, kneel and shine them clean!
51:37Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil!
51:52Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil!

51:59Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil! Neil
52:06Coach, could you all hang back for a moment?
52:08My mom comes here every Sunday to pray for me.
52:09I don't want to overwhelm her with all these people.
52:12Okay, then. Go ahead.
52:20Lick the shoes! Lick the shoes! Lick the shoes!
52:29If Malik made mistakes, then I failed him as his mother.
52:34It's my fault. All of it.
52:43Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake!
53:02Mom!
53:03Mom!
53:04Who dared to hurt my mom?
