Jemele Hill to Narrate LeBron James' 'Shut Up and Dribble' Show on Showtime
Former ESPN personality Jemele Hill will narrate a documentary produced by Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.
Hill confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter's Marisa Guthrie that she will provide the narration for Shut Up and Dribble, which is set to air in November on Showtime.
According to CNN's Sandra Gonzalez, the three-part series will center on "the evolving role that athletes, particularly those in the NBA, play in the current political environment."
This will be Hill's first project since confirming last Friday that she was leaving ESPN.
"I think LeBron, like a lot of people, has been very frustrated by the behavior of this administration," Hill told Guthrie. "[Black Americans] feel very insulted and vulnerable within this time because of who's in charge."
In October 2017, Hill received a two-week suspension from ESPN after suggesting that fans boycott the Dallas Cowboys' advertising partners to protest owner Jerry Jones' stance on requiring players to stand for the national anthem.
ESPN had reprimanded Hill a month earlier after she called President Donald Trump a "white supremacist" on Twitter.
