A new comedy show is coming to Hulu, according to Variety, and it will be based on Nets owner Joe Tsai.

The untitled show, which reportedly will begin filming in late July, will be based on the franchise owner, with Ronny Chieng playing the new general manager of the Nets, inspired by (but not about) Tsai.

Chieng is known for his role in The Daily Show on Comedy Central, but has also made movie appearances in well-known films like Crazy Rich Asians, Godzilla vs. Kong, and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

This wouldn’t be the first time the Nets would be seen on screen, as they were shown in 2010’s Just Wright, when Queen Latifah starred as a team trainer.

Perhaps we will see some cameos from Nets players when the show is released?
