Many fans of the Boston Celtics and the NBA have seen the film “Hustle” on Netflix. Cast with former Celtics forward Juancho Hernangomez as a rising Spanish NBA prospect discovered by Adam Sandler’s Philadelphia 76ers scout character, it has “Bo Cruz” — Hernangomez — playing for the (SPOILER ALERT) Celtics by the end.
As good as the film was, how accurate of a take was it on the job of an NBA team’s international scouts? Did “Hustle” get it right in the opinion of those who actually do that work on a daily basis?
