Great acting and commitment by Sanaa Lathan to follow the script. But couldn't believe her character's commitment to the little boy that didn't grow up. All the conflicts tied up neatly at the end or not mentioned.
Omar Epps followed the script as well, but I found it hard to believe his reactions to his injuries and expectations for accommodation.
Appreciated how Prince-Bythewood scripted the story around basketball rather than the usual trope of the Big Game.
But there were enough tropes to satisfy the romantics. So, a nice story for 2000 and platform for the writer-director and Lathan to establish their cred for future projects.
