Synopsis
The Waiting Game is a powerful documentary that reveals an incredible battle between the NBA and a tiny not for profit working to gain full recognition for the men of the ABA -- a colorful, exciting, rival league that arguably invented the modern game of basketball. It's a fight for benefits the players of the ABA felt were promised, but never delivered. While following an investigation of the legal trail of the ABA-NBA merger, key impact journalism and the advocacy for justice, the film reveals the lines that can stand between raw corporate interest and basic human dignity.
