Diamond

Overview

17-year-old basketball phenom Diamond McCarren fights to escape the cycle of trauma threatening to consume his future. With his father behind bars and his mother spiraling deeper into heroin addiction, Diamond shoulders the weight of a broken home while clinging to the hope of a Division I scholarship. Just as his shot at a better life arrives — a college coach’s visit — his mother suffers a devastating overdose. Torn between chasing his dream and caring for the only parent he has left, Diamond makes a life-altering decision that challenges everything he thought he knew about loyalty, ambition, and manhood. In the aftermath, his sacrifice becomes the first step toward healing a family on the brink.
