In a riveting discovery, Cosgrove unearths unseen footage of the enigmatic Lavar Ball in the 1996 movie "Freshman Fall." This gem showcases a youthful Ball in a gym scene, tucked away in a film starring DJ from Full House and Zach from Saved by the Bell. Streaming now on Amazon Prime Video and Tubi, this revelation adds a new layer to Ball's basketball journey, from his college days to a brief NFL practice squad stint. The film's LA setting, Ball's hometown, and his pivot to a personal trainer post-football all align with his intriguing past. The plot thickens as Ball's appearance in "Freshman Fall" intertwines with his son Lonzo's unexpected cameo on Fuller House, sharing the screen with none other than Candice Cameron Bure, who had crossed paths with Lavar years before.
Furthermore, a long-lost clip resurfaces, capturing the electrifying moment when Nikola Jokic was selected by the Denver Nuggets in the 2014 NBA Draft, beyond the overshadowing presence of a Taco Bell commercial. Delving deeper into the archives, we witness a rare on-court showdown between Michael Jordan and a Courtside Heckler during a fiery 1995 game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Magic Johnson's surprising sojourn to Sweden in 1999, where he dazzled on the court and left an indelible mark on Swedish basketball, serves as a testament to his enduring legacy. Lastly, a seldom-seen clip reveals Michael Jordan's candid reaction to LeBron James joining the Miami Heat, shedding light on the intricate dance of competitiveness and camaraderie in the NBA.
