S1 E2: In junior high school, Danny Grossman was the top-rated 6th-grade basketball player in the country, so good that his teammate Stephen Curry was his backup. That is until it was discovered that Danny's father forged his birth certificate, revealing that "12-year-old" Danny was actually 15, ending his basketball career. Decades later, Danny is at rock bottom. Between a failed marriage, a turbulent rapport with his daughter and a questionable relationship with the truth, Danny's potential is squandered. When the sports memorabilia store he owns, Mr. Throwback, nears bankruptcy, he finds himself with nowhere to turn and decides to target his old pal Stephen Curry for help. One night, Danny "accidentally" bumps into Stephen and they reconnect. He steals Steph's game-worn jersey to sell for quick cash but gets caught red-handed. Panicked, Danny makes up a lie, putting him at the center of yet another, potentially explosive scandal.
