Inside Game centers on the 2007 NBA Betting Scandal involving the National Basketball Association and accusations that an NBA referee used his relationships between referees, coaches, players, and owners to bet on professional basketball games. During an unrelated mob investigation, the FBI stumbled upon the scam and actively pursued legal action against all parties. The FBI investigation led to numerous arrests, including one referee being sentenced to 15 months in federal prison.
Set in Philadelphia, the film details the real-life story of Tommy Martino (Scott Wolf), who along with his two childhood friends, NBA referee Tom Donaghy (Eric Mabius), and a bookie Baba Battista (Will Sasso) hatches a foolproof scheme to make millions by betting on games Donaghy is refereeing.
“Inside Game is an inside look at the lives affected by people who think they are above the law. Unethical plans almost always seem easy, and they almost always have an inescapable crack because we are all human,” said director-producer Randall Batinkoff (37).
Inside Game stars Scott Wolf (The Night Shift, Nancy Drew, Meet My Valentine), Eric Mabius (Resident Evil, Chicago Fire, Signed, Sealed, Delivered), Will Sasso (The Three Stooges, Boss Level, Super Troopers 2), Lindsey Morgan (The 100, Summertime), and Oscar nominee Michael O’Keefe (The Great Santini, Homeland). The film was written by Andy Callahan (Taken) and is produced by Michael Pierce, Paul Martino, Batinkoff, and Robert Capelli.
