“Hoop Like This” pulls back the curtain on the unseen world of brown basketball. Gautam Kapur, a former NBA employee, is on a mission to build the role models he never had, uniting the best Indian-origin players from around the world to prove one thing: they belong on the court, and they’re here to win.

This is not your typical underdog story, this is the story of pioneers. It’s the story of athletes, coaches, sports professionals, and the families that support them (or don’t), who come together and bet on themselves, daring to believe beyond what’s been expected of them. They are heroes who pulled off historic firsts, laying the foundation and lessons for future athletes to succeed.
