With every LeBron-Kobe-Carmelo success story, there are a million hoop dreams that develop tragic endings. We all have heard the legends of Ronnie Fields, Len Bias, and Benji Wilson, all the potential in the world, yet never getting a chance see their dreams become reality. Very few outside the basketball world know the name Lenny Cooke, but a while back, he was projected to be a household name. He was supposed to be the Bird to LeBron's Magic, but he wasn't ready for the limelight, and fate had other plans for him. Debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival this week, this documentary details the incomplete destiny of New York playground legend Lenny Cooke. The trailer is powerful, I can't wait to see the entire documentary. You're welcome.
