As some of you probably already know, former Liberty Ballers writer and current Rights to Ricky Sanchez co-host Mike Levin is developing a show for NBC called “Brotherly Love,” a comedy inspired by Ben Simmons’ life. It’s the story of an NBA player like Simmons “...navigating life in the spotlight in Philadelphia, a passionate city where sports is in your blood, and your blood is always boiling,” to quote the article on NBCSports.com.
What you maybe don’t know is that the Ben Simmons pitch was just one of many pitches Mike made to NBC.
