Alongside Sandler, the movie also stars Queen Latifah, Ben Foster, and Robert Duvall, as well as several cameos from NBA play𓃲ers and coaches. The character that gets recruited in Spain is played🔯 by Juancho Hernangomez, a member of the real-life NBA team the Memphis Grizzlies. 

"[Hernangómez] acts better than me in every scene," Sandlerꦦ added. "It’s just like, god damn it. This guy is falling, crying in the middle of a scene, doing the right thing. Every joke he says, I’m like, 'He said it smoother than I would have.'"

This isn't the first time Sandler and Netflix have worked together – Sandler has starred in several movies for the streamer, including The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected), Murder Mystery, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Uncut Gems.
