Boogie is a coming-of-age story that revolves around Alfred Chin, an Asian, teenage basketball prodigy in New York who goes by “Boogie” (and who is not DeMarcus Cousins). Taylor Takahashi stars, and he’s very good at conveying Boogie’s torment. Boogie knows he can play, and thinks he’s got a good chance for a scholarship at a top university (Georgetown and St. John’s are options he has as a walk-on) but he can also be a bit hot headed. For his senior year, Boogie transfers to City Prep high school to increase his profile, but he has several altercations with his coach, including telling him that his teammates are “hot trash.”
