Plot

Juwanna Mann follows the story of Jamal Jeffries, the reigning 'bad boy' of basketball, whose undisciplined on-and-off-court antics have him indefinitely suspended from the league, without any prospects. Financially in trouble and untrained in anything but basketball, Jamal comes up with an outrageous plan that just might work: dress up like a woman and try out for the WUBA, the woman's basketball league. He makes it, but now he faces a challenge - to stop being Jamal and become Juwanna. Matters become even more complicated when Juwanna realizes that he is falling for his teammate Michelle, who shows him that there is more to women.

Allusions

During her first WUBA game, Juwanna is on the bench, viciously biting a towel. This can be a reference to Jerry Tarkanian, a college basketball coach who gnawed on towels during the game.
