Everyone knows that Dallas, TX is football country. But basketball is growing. Could it be because of the big athletes like LaMarcus Aldridge going to the NBA? Or is the fear of football concussions driving more players to hoop? Devin Williams (Shift Team HQ) heads to the land where everything is “BIG” to find out what’s happening.

Each episode focuses on a different city and throws the viewer into the middle of the hoops scene. Every journey needs a guide and ours is Devin Williams of Shift Team HQ. Devin is a trainer, a former player, and a student of the game. Throughout the series, Devin watches up-and-coming local players try to become the city’s best and spends time in the gym with top trainers and coaches. But that’s not it... We also dive deeper into the day-to-day lives of the characters who define the game in their city. We see what their lives look like. Where they come from. Where they’re going. What drives them. It’s a ground-level, slice of life approach that, at the end of an episode, is both a pulse-taking of each city’s basketball culture, but also a portrait of that city itself.
