He Got Game

In He Got Game, a compelling drama directed by Spike Lee, the story revolves around Jake Shuttlesworth (Denzel Washington), a prison inmate.

The plot unfurls as father and son grapple with their past and future amidst the pressure-cooker world of college basketball recruitment. This film won an award for Best Original Score at the 1998 Black Reel Awards.
