The story follows Cam Calloway, a basketball phenom in his early 20's who is suddenly thrust into the limelight after signing a multi-million dollar contract with a professional basketball team in Atlanta. Cam, along with his cousin and confidant Reggie Vaughn, move to Georgia to start Cam's journey to success.

Cam, Reggie and an Unforgettable group of characters wrestle with the rewards and pitfalls of stardom, love and loyalty.
