”King of the Court”
The average height of NBA players is 6’6″. Less than 1% of NBA players are Jewish. Most of them did not go to prom alone. These facts somehow still did not stop Jon Savitt from chasing his dreams. Blending authentic stories and visuals, “King of the Court” is the untold underdog tale of one of the greatest athletes to ever live. Sure, “athlete” may be subjective. So grab your foam finger and get ready to laugh, cry, and cheer. Because dreams have no shot clock.
