A new LeBron James-produced television series is coming to HBO.
The network is working with SpringHill Entertainment, the production company founded by the Cleveland Cavaliers star and Maverick Carter, on developing a half-hour comedy centered around sneaker culture, according to Deadline's Nellie Andreeva.
The series, which is still without a title, focuses on "two best friends and their wild employees at an up-and-coming sneaker shop outside L.A., where they take on the insane and obsessive world of sneaker culture."
SpringHill Entertainment confirmed the news on Instagram:
