Jenna is renting a house in a residential neighborhood and her cosmetic sales business is booming. Everything is going right in the life of Jace Carson and his family.

With winning comes scrutiny and the players find themselves under a microscope as they vie for a national high school championship. Games are attended by top college scouts from the nation and are live-streamed for thousands of fans. Almost overnight, Cedar Cove’s basketball program becomes elite, attracting the attention of Alonzo Powers from Gladiator Sneakers. For all of their academic success, their basketball program has not been competitive until Emory Lawson, the athletic director, managed to acquire the Swagger players. All but Phil will be attending Cedar Cove Prep a predominantly white institution where wealthy board members control the entire operation from the hiring of faculty to the enrollment of students. In season two, we meet the man-children Jace, Phil, Nick, Musa, Drew and Royale as they are entering their senior year of high school.
