Highly touted as one of the best high school players of all time, he seemed destined to be an NBA star. But due to some unforeseen circumstances, Schea Cotton never fully realized that dream.

The documentary attempts to shed light on an aspect of sports we don't often think about in the pressure that is put on those with incredible talent even at a very early age.

Cotton never became a superstar, but he overcame a lot to become a great man. His story is worth your time.

Rated: 8.5/10

It will appeal not just to basketball fans, but anyone with a soul, as his mother, father, and brother tell his story and bring him back to his prime.

Battle Royale With Cheese

This documentary shows filmmaking potential and I admire it's aim to shine a spotlight on a forgotten champion, and would be interested to see more work from Eric 'Ptah' Herbert.
