A sitcom starring NBA superstar Stephen Curry will premiere on Peacock this summer.
Between the lines: The longtime face of the Golden State Warriors will portray himself in the show alongside Adam Pally (“Knuckles”) and Ego Nwodim (“Saturday Night Live”).
- It could signal that Curry, who recently bought a building in San Francisco to serve as headquarters for his Thirty Ink business, is planting seeds for his post-NBA career.
State of play: The series follows a memorabilia dealer (played by Pally) who falls on hard times and turns to his sixth-grade teammate (Curry) for help.
What we’re hearing: The show is currently filming in the Bay Area.
Behind the scenes: The four-time NBA champion is slated to produce the show with his company Unanimous Media.
- “Mr. Throwback” was the previously released name of the sitcom, but Peacock confirmed to Axios that the title will change.
- As of Tuesday, the show didn’t have an official premiere date.
