Sandler is a known Knicks fan. But his fandom did not stand in the way of him developing a relationship with 76ers players in the movie. The film also features current Sixers players such as Tyrese Maxey and Matisse Thybulle.




Nonetheless, Adam Sandler is still a Knicks fan at heart despite his newfound appreciation of Tobias Harris and the Sixers.
Some of the other NBA superstars who can be found in the film include; Julius Irving, Trae Young, Dirk Nowitzki, Luka Doncic, Anthony Edwards, Kenny Smith, Kyle Lowry, amongst many others. Juancho Hernangomez plays the most prominent role out of the NBA players.
The movie is currently streaming on Netflix. It is a film that both NBA and non-NBA fans can enjoy. But basketball fans will certainly enjoying watching it the most.
