All eyes are on a young basketball sensation from Lansing, Michigan—dubbed “Magic”—the NBA’s 1979 first overall draft pick.

After clinching the 1980 NBA Championship, Magic’s popularity soars. But his personal life is turbulent, and new NBA rivals emerge.

Just as life is on the upswing, with marriage and a baby on the way, Magic receives an earth-shattering diagnosis that he’s contracted HIV.

Fresh off the Dream Team’s historic win, Magic stages a comeback while evolving into a business powerhouse and nurturing a growing family.
