'Basketball or Nothing' premiere's on Netflix 2019

BASKETBALL OR NOTHING on NET-FLIX. The 6-part series follows the Navajo "Wildcats" high school basketball team. They try to become that first team to get to the state championships. 

Episode 1: Rezball

Raul Mendoza is the coach and he discovers how the team plays "Rezball" tactics. He is intrigued by the "push" to get a shot inside the hoop. It is a loose, aggressive and individual way of playing. But, the coach wants them to work as a team before the season begins. They are tested in their first game and they barely win, but it's a lesson on team work. We see how the coach wants his players to win, but also to learn how to get there.

Chinle, Arizona is very desolate and miles from the nearest big city. It's the Indian Reservation and the only thing local residents love is high school basketball. They have never been to the state championships and this could be the year they get their chance.
