The Harlem Globetrotters

Catching up with Coach Abe Saperstein (Thomas Gomez) and the team after wrapping up his college affairs, new recruit Billy (pro-basketball player Billy Brown) gets introduced to the real-life stars, and a practice exhibition, directed by MGM shorts specialist Will Jason, in The Harlem Globetrotters, 1951.

College hoop star Billy (played by Billy Brown, a non-actor basketball pro at the time) tells his girlfriend Ann (Dorothy Dandridge, second-billed after Thomas Gomez, who pays the team founder Abe Saperstein, in her first speaking appearance) that he's leaving to join the barnstorming title-team, in The Harlem Globetrotters, 1951.

A little schtick about life on the road, Thomas Gomez as the team founder and coach Abe Saperstein with the real Harlem Globetrotters, a nod to their genuine barnstorming occupation, greeted by Al Eben, then performing to the "Sweet Georgia Brown" theme, in The Harlem Globetrotters, 1951, from Columbia and producer Buddy Adler.
