The docuseries, “Full Court Press” will be released on May 11th and 12th and after that, fans can stream the series on ESPN+. The trailer was recently released. With the series, the fans will get to see the lives of three prominent college players.

Clark of the Iowa Hawkeyes broke the all-time NCAA women’s basketball scoring record earlier set by Kelsey Plum and her journey will be well-documented as well.
Kamilla Cardoso of South Carolina scored the most crucial three-pointer which sent the squad to SEC championship and all the moments leading up to her successful season will be given to the fans exclusively for them to see through the highly-anticipated docuseries.
Peyton Manning, founder of Omaha Productions, shared via ESPN Press Room, “I remember what it meant to the University of Tennessee and the entire state when Pat Summitt led the Lady Vols to back-to-back national titles during my time in Knoxville. We’re excited to share the stories of these three amazing women to a national audience at this incredible moment for women’s basketball.”
Kristen Lappas, director of the “Full Court Press” also mentioned, “As someone who has grown up a devout fan of the women’s game, I am thrilled that we are able to make this show at this pivotal moment in the history of the sport. To be able to pull back the curtain and document Caitlin Clark’s historic season has been a privilege for our entire team. Each of our three players brings a unique set of storylines to the table, and we hope we’re able to capture both the excitement and the complexities surrounding what it means to be an elite female basketball player in 2024.”
Clark has also won many accolades in her career and has recently taken women’s basketball to prominent heights as well. She is the NCAA all-time leading scorer and is looking forward to once again creating history in March Madness as well.
Bruins guard Kiki Rice is impressive in her performance and in the season is having 12.6 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. Kamilla Cardoso had an incredible season and her average is 14 points and 9.5 rebounds per game. She has become one of the fundamental players of the Gamecocks as her WNBA projected pick speaks for itself.
