Chris PaulLos Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul is bringing his real life to the small screen in an autobiographical comedy for CBS TV Studios.

Variety reports the show will focus on “two brothers who work at a service station owned by their grandfather, who champions old-school values in a contrast to the attitude of their guarded, politically-correct mother.” The untitled project is inspired by Paul’s childhood in North Carolina with his older brother.

Paul will executive produce the show along with his brother CJ Paul and Eric and Kim Tannenbaum. Warren Lieberstein (“The Office”) will serve as writer.

The star follows behind LeBron James who recently premiered his autobiographical comedy “Survivor’s Remorse” for Starz. Former NBA player Baron Davis was also given the green light to develop a series with Fox which will recount his experiences of growing up in South Central L.A. while attending a prestigious suburban school.
