Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.

This week, it’s basketball season (or so we’ve been told, we were all indoor kids here at Weekend Read)! Whether you’re a fan of the sport or not, stories of underdog teams can be a winning formula, and the passion the game evokes is uniquely cinematic.

Our collection includes:

  • Air by Alex Convery
  • Hustle by Taylor Materne
  • Love & Basketball by Gina Prince-Bythewood
  • Swagger - “NBA” by Reggie Rock Bythewood
  • The Way Back by Brad Ingelsby
  • Uncut Gems by Ronald Bronstein & Josh Safdie & Benny Safdie
  • Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty - “The Swan” by Max Borenstein

Read these and other featured collections only on Weekend Read 2, available on all Mac and iOS devices. Download for free!
