Overview
Sixteen years after Leslie Wright (Queen Latifah) and NBA star Scott McKnight (Common) found their happily-ever-after, Just Wright 2 (2026) explores what happens when love, ambition, and identity collide in the next chapter of their lives.
Scott, now retired from the NBA, struggles with leaving the spotlight behind, while Leslie has risen to prominence as a sought-after sports therapist, mentoring the league’s brightest new stars. Their marriage is tested when Scott is offered the chance to coach a struggling professional team—an opportunity that could reignite his passion but strain their relationship.
Jesse Williams joins as a talented but hotheaded rookie who challenges Scott’s authority on and off the court, while Paula Patton plays a sharp, ambitious sports executive whose involvement with the team complicates the McKnights’ personal and professional lives.
Blending heartfelt romance, humor, and the high-stakes energy of professional basketball, Just Wright 2 is a story about resilience, compromise, and the teamwork it takes to keep love in the game long after the final buzzer.
