The King is still striving for greatness off of the court with partnerships with the University of Akron to ensure kids from his hometown get a college education and a new venture known as Springhill Entertainment where he aims to produce original content for Hollywood with his partners. The latest news is that he’s using this platform to launch and produce a half-hour scripted comedy show with his business partner Maverick Carter for HBO.
The sit-com is about two best friends and their employees in an up-and-coming sneaker shop outside of LA. Past HBO shows like How to Make It in America and Entourage have touched on obsessive sneakerheads in the past, but this will be the first sneaker-centric TV show out there. And we can’t wait.
Stay tuned for more details for when this hits screens!
