DESCRIPTION:
(from Disney+'s web site, October 2022) Having decided to remain the coach at Westbrook, former men’s college hoops legend Marvyn Korn is determined to turn the Sirens into champions and restore his tarnished legacy. His players, however, complicate both goals as they struggle to navigate the pitfalls of life and love in high school. When Korn recruits a new star player, he’ll soon find the girls (and himself) dealing with combustible team chemistry, unexpected new distractions, and fighting for respect on and off the court as familiar new tenants join them in the gym. Meanwhile, as conflict grows with his teen daughter Emma, Marvyn battles to be a better parent, but Mother Nature soon throws all of Westbrook a curveball they could never see coming.
