Two USC basketball stars get their close-up in new movie this June
The Spoils: Selling the Future of American Basketball is a full length documentary film that probes the centrality of money in America’s basketball industry. The film is the product of 10 years of up-close access to America’s prominent AAU program, the Compton Magic, and CEO Etop Udo-Ema, who has placed more than 35 players in the NBA. This film will premiere globally on June 13, 2024 on JOLT. It heavily features NBA talent including former USC basketball stars Evan Mobley (Cleveland Cavaliers) and Onyeka Okongwu (Atlanta Hawks).
Additionally, the film includes expert analysis and insight from top basketball insiders and executives, including Jay Bilas, Sonny Vaccaro and Howard Beck.
The Spoils removes the veil and identifies the considerable weight of corporate influence to create an accurate look at the basketball landscape as it actually exists, obliterating the idea of ‘amateurism’ at every level of the sport. The film identifies new incentives that drive America’s basketball business in today’s ‘NIL’ era.
We are all going to be interested in watching this film and learning more about Evan Mobley and Onyeka Okongwu.
