Plot Synopsis

Hosted by Craig Robinson, HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS: PLAY IT FORWARD is a half-hour educational series that showcases the players' achievements both on and off the court as ambassadors of goodwill. Each 30-minute episode focuses on true inspirations and interests of many of the Harlem Globetrotters including space exploration with NASA, financial responsibility and literacy, urban farming, female empowerment, digital technology, innovations that the Harlem Globetrotters brought to the game of basketball, and much more. In recent years the team's initiatives have included the anti-bullying campaign T.E.A.M. Up, for Talk, Empathize, Ask, and Mobilize; and Hoops for the Troops performances at military bases. For the new series, in each city they visit the players will explore ways to help the community through volunteerism, fund raising, and one-on-one connections. HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS: PLAY IT FORWARD airs Saturday mornings/daytime at 11am on NBC (check local listings).
