'Running Point' Team Teases What's Next for the Gordons in Season 2

As viewers will recall from Season 1 of Running Point, after taking over as president of the Los Angeles Waves, Isla Gordon managed to steer the team toward success despite the factors working against her. While the team may have lost their big final game, Isla was resolved to deliver basketball greatness next season, until she walked into her office to find her older brother and former disgraced president Cam (Theroux) sitting behind her desk.

Not to mention, her relationship with pediatrician Lev (Greenfield) was up in the air, especially after a spontaneous kiss with coach Jay Brown (Ellis). We can imagine these big cliffhangers will be addressed as the show continues to explore the growing relationship between Isla, her brothers Sandy (Tarver) and Ness (MacArthur), and their newly-discovered baby brother Jackie (Fabrizio Guido).

Season 2’s logline teases that Isla is no longer the surprise choice to lead the Los Angeles Waves as she’s the one everyone is watching. As the franchise rebounds after last year’s scandal, Isla is determined to prove she’s not just keeping her brother Cam’s seat warm. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, Cam is angling to get his job back by tracking every single misstep Isla makes. As Isla tries to balance the pressure of the franchise with her personal life, every decision off the court counts. To survive the family power plays and scrutiny of the board, Isla will have to rip up last season’s game plan and start fresh.
