Brenda Song is Set to Star in Netflix basketball series

Brenda Song, Scott MacArthur and Drew Tarver have joined the untitled Mindy Kaling’s Netflix basketball series, which stars Kate Hudson.

In the comedy, the only sister in a family of competitive brothers, Isla Gordon (Hudson) has been overlooked and underappreciated her whole life. But when a scandal forces her brother to resign, Isla is unexpectedly appointed President of the Los Angeles Waves, one of the most storied professional basketball franchises, and her family business. Ambitious, Isla finally has a chance to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community that she was the right choice for the job, especially in the unpredictable, male-dominated world of sports.

Brenda play Ali Lee, Chief of Staff of the Waves, who knows where the bodies are buried. She understands the complex politics surrounding the Gordon family, having known Isla since they shared a dorm room in college. She’s funny, tough, and even the biggest guy on the team is scared of her.
