Swagger season 2 trailer: Every move counts
The detailed trailer for Swagger season 2 establishes the story brilliantly while giving a glimpse at the terrifying world outside the court. It also gives a glimpse of the high stakes that the players face on the court, with each move having the potential to make or break someone.
The trailer depicts Jace (Isaiah Hill) as he tries to balance his Basketball and life in the most sensible ways. But there is always trouble brewing outside the court that may jeopardize it all. The official synopsis for the second season, according to Collider, reads:
"Season 2 will see everyone but Phil attending Cedar Cove Prep for their senior year. The school is overseen by wealthy board members who control and scrutinize every decision regarding how the institution is run, including the enrollment of students. With the athletic director revamping the entire basketball program with the acquisition of Jace, Nick, Musa, Drew, and Royale, the board is watching over the team like a hawk as they take the court to vie for a national high school championship."
The second season will see the players face a bigger and more grueling challenge as they put everything on the line.
