Dive into the heart of the Basketball Academy founded by Tony Parker in Lyon. Produced by Constance de Médina and Grégory Baucomont, this documentary series chronicles the hopes, dreams and doubts of young students over six episodes. Some will become pro players, join the ASVEL pro club, even join the prestigious NBA, and others will change their ways…
“TP”, a cunning businessman, is also a man of heart: “ It was my biggest dream to transfer my experiences to future players. That’s why he founded the Tony Parker Adéquat Academy in Lyon in 2019. Young people warned: 95% of you will not be professionals. This is the sad truth… “So it’s as much a high-level training framework for the sports section as it is for it. ” If they can’t be professionals, they’ll at least get a job. More than a basketball school, it’s a school of life.
