A film by Jimmy Jenkins
Middle school basketball is the hottest ticket in town as students from Thomas G. Pullen middle school strive to defend their county title. Amidst hardships on and off the court, the student athletes epitomize the transformative power of teamwork.
In a region famed for local young athletes becoming NBA stars, Prince George’s County on the eastern end of Washington, DC, is also a place where mentorship changes lives. Programs like the public middle school basketball league are more than just a game, they’re a pipeline to greater possibilities in life. In Comeback Kids, Coach Jay Spinks leads the Thomas G. Pullen middle school basketball team on a historic endeavor to defend their county championship through discipline and community support. The story of the young athletes is one of hope and the power of sports to bring about social transformation.
