It’s about a white woman who has an affair with a married, black, NBA player. She gets pregnant and they have a custody battle. Everyone thinks the child should stay with the black family because their richer and the child “looks” more like them. But in the end the white woman wins. Its based off a true story. But who??

The story is based on NBA player Theodore “Blue” Edwards. He played in the NBA all through the 90’s first being drafted by the Utah Jazz then playing for other teams such the Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks, Vancouver Grizzlies, and finally with the Miami Heat. I believe he was with the Vancouver Grizzlies when this story takes place since the court trials were held Canadian courts.
