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 seniors 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.
