“Being a fan is like having a religion.” – Matt

When Matt is forced to sell his Cleveland Cavaliers season tickets, it hurts. He’s been a lifelong fan and the team is finally showing promise thanks to rising superstar LeBron ‘King’ James. But Matt gets a lucky break when he bonds with Shawn, the guy who buys his tickets, and they start going to games together. Not just for basketball fans, King James is a fast-paced comedy about the ups and downs of friendship, dealing with life’s unexpected bounces and the fascinating way fandom brings people together.
