Synopsis

Everything changes when 12-year-old Picasso Dewlap discovers a Sasquatch his own age who has a natural talent for basketball. Ed Tibbetts, as the Sasquatch is called, with his huge height and killer arm, aces the team into the local championships. The cost of winning is high as the childlike Ed misses his family. Also, the townsfolk seem to lose a little more kindness with each game the team wins. The only people who keep their perspective are Picasso's loving and very eccentric parents.
