Solomon is excellent as Kareem. They couldn't have found a better actor for that role. I would love to see this guy become a huge star.
Incredible casting. He literally became Kareem. The mannerisms, focus and authorative nature of Mr. Jabbar. That scene with him and Earvin Sr. was his best scene yet.
Him and Rob Morgan are killing it
This guy embodies Kareem. To the point where I was shocked to see the real Kareem in the sidebyside airplane shot. He's killing it.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, along with Dr. J, still are my favorite NBA players.
I pray Kareem watches this interview with Solomon Hughes.
I hope Kareem approves of the efforts.
I wish for Kareem to give Solomon and the crew some praise.
Check out the newest episode out they have Dr. J in it
They say Dr J was really the 1st mainstream, crossover player into celebrity? Fish That Saves Pittsburgh is a cult classic?
Dude is doing a dope job 🙌🏿
Such an amazing interview. Dr. Solomon seems like a very intelligent, articulate guy and nails his performance as KAJ in the show. Can't wait to see what's in store in the next few episodes and season 2.
"WINNING TIME!" IS A GREAT SHOW!
He did a GREAT job as Kareem.
Emmy award winning performance IMO
Intellectual guy comes through, as he obviously is. GREAT show!
Man I love this series. Solomon is a 🌟
I love him as Kareem
Show is amazing and this guy is 100% great in it.
43 years old? He looks 25.
Crazy
Fax I thought he was much younger
He do not look 43 at all
Love this show. Keep up the great work Dr. Hughes
Rich! If you were SOOO impressed with the authenticity of the "Kareem Airplane scene?"...I can't believe you missed "THE REAL AIRPLANE DIRECTORS!!!"(Zucker bros. now with gray hair) directing the scene in the re enactment!(I know, because I worked with them, in "Ruthless People"😉)....loved the interview with Solomon btw, and the Lakers TV series!👍
Great job, Solomon! You nailed it!
Bro I didn’t even look at him as a actor. I’m legit like, that’s Kareem 😂

Seems like a solid dude. I love the show.
His performance was fantastic, well done sir.
Perfect Casting
Dr Hughes is class act winning times is a great show
He deserves a Oscar for Kareem
Well An Emmy! But we knowhat u mean!! hate to be the 1st to tell Yall, Winning Season's Been cancelled for season 3! Man, that pisses me off!
I know man it sucks
Nobody was gonna tell him with the side by side that’s it’s clearly NOT the same cockpit
Yeah, if it is the same one, it's been modified a heck of a lot.
@@fredkruse9444 definitely modified since then i think
Rich Eisen you the man!!!
Great job
So brilliantly acted!!!
The real Kareem has stated that he has no respect for the flimsy characters in "Winning Time". Despite this fact, this man seems to have good intentions.
I read that this dude is 43! How the hell does he not even look 33? Lucky bastard!
Its a shame Kareem hates him or the show, Solomon does a good job of playing him
Show is AWESOME!!!
1st acting job?! GTFOH 🔥🔥🔥
Yesssirrr 🔥🔥🔥
He is good as Kareem but honestly kareem had wide intense eyes.
Agreed. Kareem's eyes were huge and his gaze was piercing. A very unique looking man. But it would have been impossible for the show to find a lookalike that fit all the criteria. Solomon is probably the best they could have found.
tuned in to see if he has a Brittish accent
You didn't 'resist the one dimension of being a tall black bball player'. You tried to be a bball player, and didn't make it. That's still valuable, you went for it. Don't act like you made some noble choice about it. :)
Francisco Elson looks nothing like Kareem
