Twelve-year-old Jacob Monroe has always dreamed of being a star basketball player. After the passing of his father, that dream felt even more impossible. But everything changes when he and his mom move into his dad’s childhood home in Fernfield.

There, Jacob discovers an old VHS tape showing his dad winning MVP at 13 — playing basketball alongside a golden retriever shooting hoops on the same court. When Jacob has a miraculous chance meeting with a neglected golden retriever he names Buddy, the inseparable duo embark on a journey of healing, unite a team of misfits, and chase a championship.

Through it all, they learn to play from the heart, believe in each other, and always take the shot.
