    • Synopsis
    • Manual Arts High School in South Central Los Angeles produced two of the greatest high school basketball players of all-time. Dwayne Polee became the two-time West Coast Conference Player of the Year and Freeman WIlliams would become NCAA college basketball's living all-time leading scorer.
      "Inner City Champions" chronicles the life story of these two men who selflessly became role models at the very same high school where their hoop dreams began, Manual Arts High School.
      For these two basketball legends, the sweetest victory was coming home.
