Within the heart of every boy burns the desire to become a hero. Within the heart of every man burns the desire to teach. On the basketball court, a boy and a man become....HOOP HEROES. A disgruntled NBA star, Bobby O'Connors, travels to China, in order to play an exhibition match and save his flailing position on the NBA team, LA Dreamers. A chance encounter with a young Chinese boy, Chao, who views the star as his hero, sets off a chain of events that will see not only a clash between two cultures, but also the bonding of a boy and NBA star, who learn that both love the game of basketball and their dreams have always been to simply play basketball. On the court and off the court, the boy and NBA star become heroes, encouraging others to reach for their own dreams.
