By: Caryn Robbins
Deadline.com reports that HBO is joining forces with Jeff Nathanson (Catch Me If You Can) and Gavin Polone (Curb Your Enthusias) for an upcoming one-hour professional basketball dramedy series. Nathanson and Polone will serve as executive producers.
The yet to be titled project is described as an "unflinching behind-the-scenes look at a professional basketball team — and the money, sex, power and temptation that consumes the wild lives of millionaire players and billionaire owners."
Polone is EP and director of the new ABC Family series 'Jane by Design' and will produce the upcoming 'Premium Rush.' Nathanson’s writing credits include the Rush Hour films and Tower Heist. He is currently working on DreamWorks' 39 Clues.
