After draining his life savings to
enter a team in the Rucker Classic street ball tournament in Harlem, Dax (Lil
Rel Howery) is dealt a series of unfortunate setbacks, including losing his
team to his longtime rival (Nick Kroll). Desperate to win the tournament and
the cash prize, Dax stumbles upon the man, the myth, the legend UNCLE DREW (NBA
All-Star Kyrie Irving) and convinces him to return to the court one more time.
The two men embark on a road trip to round up Drew's old basketball squad
(Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller, Nate Robinson, and Lisa Leslie)
and prove that a group of septuagenarians can still win the big one.
After a
successful five years as a fan-favorite digital episodic series, originally
conceived by Pepsi, UNCLE DREW, will hit theaters June 29, 2018. UNCLE DREW is
a Summit Entertainment release produced by Temple Hill in association with
PepsiCo's Creators League Studios.
Director Charles Stone III's
anti-ageist basketball comedy revolves around a young black man (Lil Rel
Howery) and his dream of winning the Rucker Classic street ball tournament in
Harlem. After losing his team to his arch-rival, he turns to a crew of
septuagenarians (played by real-life basketball greats $Kyrie Irving},
Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller, Nate Robinson, and Lisa Leslie)
in his last bid for victory.
The film opens with a
documentary-style overview of Uncle Drew, a well-remembered basketball legend
who was supposed to play in the Rucker Classic. However, due to an unknown
conflict, he and his team disappeared. In the present, Dax is the
under-appreciated coach of the Harlem Money and their star player, Casper
Jones. Dax spends lavishly to keep both his girlfriend, Jess, and Casper happy,
despite being a clerk at Foot Locker.
During practice Mookie, an old rival of
Dax's, arrives and taunts him about the upcoming Rucker Classic tournament. In
a dream sequence, we learn that Dax was an orphan who planned on becoming a
basketball player, but was humiliated by Mookie after he had a shot blocked by
him in their youth. The next day at work Casper demands expensive new shoes
from Dax, who effectively bankrupts himself purchasing them.
Despite this,
Mookie successfully recruits Casper and the rest of Dax's team away from him,
leading to a confrontation involving Dax forcibly trying to remove Casper's
shoes that is filmed and shown on ESPN. Due to this humiliation, Dax's
girlfriend Jess dumps him and kicks him out of her apartment.
