The Legend of Swee' Pea

Streaming video - 2016

A “mystical understanding of the game” made Lloyd "Swee' Pea" Daniels a New York City basketball legend by the age of 16. Christened the “next Magic Johnson”, his career effectively ended at age 21 after being shot 3 times in the chest after a tussle over {dollar}8 of cocaine. THE LEGEND OF SWEE' PEA follows the twists and turns of fortune in the life of a basketball prodigy: his dramatic downfall, miraculous comeback, and, finally, the bittersweet confrontation with a life imperfectly lived.
