The Dream Whisperer (2022)
In the midst of segregation, the all-black Tennessee A&I Tigers were the first collegiate basketball team to win three consecutive national championships. Yet they were never duly recognized for this singular achievement. The team's captain, legendary Knicks player Dick Barnett, began a nine-year quest to ensure his team's immortality. His tenacity, dedication, and struggle finally paid off in 2019.
