ABOUT THE SERIES
THE CROSSOVER is a half hour docu-series that takes an exclusive behind the scenes look into the lives of athletes from all sports as they make the transition from one level of athletics to another. Every episode of the show features a different athlete as they make a crossover that not only changes their career, but their lifestyle as well. Whether it's leaping from high school to college, college to the pros, the minors to the pros, or a pro transitioning to retirement, each episode gives us a glimpse into an athlete's experience on and off the playing field as their hard work pays off and dreams come true before our eyes.
Throughout every episode, the featured athlete's family and friends offer their unique perspective into the player's life. Special guests and veterans of the respective sport pose honest insight into the potential challenges in store for the athlete, both personally and career wise. The pressure, struggles, responsibilities, intense preparation and payoff...we get an up close and personal look at it all.
The pilot focuses on NCAA basketball champion Ty Lawson in his transition from the University of North Carolina to the NBA draft. We get an all access look into Ty's life as he prepares physically and psychologically in the days leading up to the biggest night of his life...the NBA Draft. Our cameras follow Ty through draft night, as he sits on the edge of his seat, waiting to see what his future holds. Special guests include Baron Davis, Jay Williams, Steve Francis, James 'JB' Brown and Doug Collins.
Breaking expectations, however, THE CROSSOVER proves to be about something greater than sports. It is about the evolution of a life in the face of dreams coming to fruition... An exploration of how personal goals match up with reality and the new challenges that accompany a dream's fulfillment...
