Synopsis
Jamal Jefferies is one basketball star who stirs up heat both on and off the court. This player's got game, girls and attitude to spare. But when one confrontation too many gets him booted out of the league, Jamal is going to need a lot more than a good agent to get him back on the courts.
Jamal's only chance is to join up with his other league, the women's basketball league. With coerced support from his reluctant agent and a heavily padded sports bra, Jamal transforms himself from the bad boy of basketball to its newest female role model: Juwanna Mann!
The Juwanna Mann team consists of Miguel A Nunez Jr, (WHY DO FOOLS FALL IN LOVE) in the dual role of Jamal Jefferies and his female alter-ego, Juwanna Mann; Vivica A Fox (SOUL FOOD, INDEPENDENCE DAY) as Michelle Langford, Team Captain of the Charlotte Banshee; Kevin Pollack (THE USUAL SUSPECT'S, THE WHOLE NINE YARDS) as Jamal Juwanna's agent Lorne Daniels; Tommy Davidson (BAMBOOZLED) as Juwanna's would be suitor and wanna-be rapper Puff Smokey Smoke.
