‘With a bolt of lightning on my kicks . . .

The court is SIZZLING.
My sweat is DRIZZLING.
Stop all that quivering.
Cuz tonight I'm delivering’

12-year-old Josh and his twin Jordan have basketball in their blood. They’re kings of the court, star players for their school team. Their father used to be a champion player and they each want nothing more than to follow in his footsteps.

Can she find her voice and pull off the dance of a lifetime? Navigate the paths of self-belief, endurance, and friendship… What will you decide?
