The Story Behind That Perfect Final Scene in ESPN’s Stuart Scott ‘30 for 30’

Posted Jan 25, 2026
The final scene in ESPN’s 30 for 30 “Boo-Yah: A Portrait of Stuart Scott” is a Top 10 highlight if I’ve ever seen one. And frankly, the documentary’s director can take very little credit for it. Andre Gaines tells The Hollywood Reporter he had “easily” 400 to 500 hours of footage to use for his 30 for 30 installment, which honors the late SportsCenter anchor. (Hollywood Reporter)
