Which NBA stars are in the new Netflix movie, Hustle?

The new Adam Sandler movie (yes, that Adam Sandler) is chock-full of NBA stars. So many, in fact, that you might not have even realized someone was a player until the credits started rolling.

Maybe you’ve just finished the movie and want to test your memory skills or maybe you’re considering the movie and want to see if the player you love is in it. Either way, we’ve got a list of every player in it for easy enjoyment.

The movie is about a Philadelphia 76ers scout so it’s heavy on players and coaches from that team including Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey, Matisse Thybulle, and Boban Marjanović. But there are others as well.

• Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young
• Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson
• Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton
• Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon
• Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry
• Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry

Of course, you’ll notice Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards as the villain of the movie (and he’s a good one).

“It was dope for me,” Edwards told Pop Culture.  “Coming from the basketball world, seeing all the work that you got to put in to be an actor all the time. It takes a lot of time out of your day and takes a lot of dedication. To be the best, you got to work the hardest.”

And the movie would not be complete without Juancho Hernangomez, who plays opposite Sandler.

Worthy of note is LeBron James who isn’t in the film itself but is referred to and listed as a producer for the film.
