How Stephen Curry Got a Sitcom: Adam Pally and Ego Nwodim Talk ‘Mr. Throwback,’ Peacock’s Mockumentary Series About Defrauding an NBA Star

Steph Curry stars in Peacock's 'Mr. Throwback.' Adam Pally and Ego Nwodim talk about the Olympics-timed release and a 'Happy Endings' revival.

Of course, he’s determined in his own right, being a four-time NBA champion and a locker-room leader, but his carefree smile and enduring boyishness suggest a uniquely forgiving temperament — one that Pally’s character pushes to the limits. The production also recruited “Saturday Night Live” cast member Ego Nwodim to play Kimberly, once a childhood friend to Steph and Danny, and now the NBA star’s workhorse right-hand-woman. As Danny draws his ex-wife Samantha (Ayden Mayeri) into his conspiracy, the pair find themselves eager to surrender their principles for the sake of staying in the luxurious orbit of pro sports.
