Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards and Adam Sandler both score in Netflix's 'Hustle'

'Hustle'
Timberwolves player Anthony Edwards is excellent as the bad-sport bad guy in one of those inspiring, taking-a-chance-on-a-long shot sports movies. Adam Sandler goes low-key as a desperate scout who discovers a Spanish player (Utah Jazz's Juancho Hernangómez, good in a complex role). It's not always clear why he's a long shot, since Hernangómez plays the almost mythical "big man with a guard's handle," and it takes guts to set one of these movies in Philadelphia, home of "Rocky." But the behind-the-scenes basketball details are convincing and there's just enough grit to balance the uplift. Netflix
