 The film chronicles a group of athletes who influenced a nation of basketball fans – some of whom became professional basketball players. It includes commentaries from former Michigan coaches Steve Fisher, Brian Dutcher, and Perry Watson, and rap icons Ice Cube and Chuck D. It also extends to details such as: "Howard discussing his grandmother's death the day he signed his letter of intent, to Ray Jackson talking about being' the fifth wheel 'and considering a transfer, to Jimmy King's brutal honesty about his disdain for Christian Laettner -- in somewhat unpalatable verbiage, to Rose talking about the loitering ticket he got in the Detroit 'crack house.'" The film also presented numerous other highlights of the era as well as some from the high school days of the featured players. Webber was considered notable for his non-involvement in the production, while the rest of the Fab Five were credited as executive producers. Rose approached ESPN Films about the project and brought the other players into the fold. His production role came through his own company, Three Tier Entertainment. The film was directed by Jason Hehir and narrated by Taye Diggs.
