Synopsis of Ballers

Spencer Strasmore was an NFL star until an injury forced him to retire. Now, in Miami, he looks for a new path at Anderson Financial, a financial advisory firm where he begins managing the money of other professional athletes. Joe Krutel, an adviser at the firm, helps him adjust to an environment where million-dollar contracts and appearances matter as much as what happens on the field. Spencer wants to prove he can make a living outside of football, but each client presents a different problem, and his own past keeps demanding his attention. The series, created by Stephen Levinson, airs on HBO and stars Dwayne Johnson as Spencer.
