Suits is back!
Suits Season 5 is just round the corner and it has been confirmed that NBA star Charles Barkley, who is currently a commentator, will make an appearance in episode 3. It is understood that the basketball player will play a fictional version of himself. Harvey Specter is known to be an avid basketball fan. He has a line of Patrick Ewing and other NBA players’ autographed basketballs on his window sill and NBA Legend Michael Jordan on his speed dial. He is a man who represents major athletes and also knows them on a first name basis. According to the season 4 finale, the future of Harvey and Donna is still unknown. Barkley, who is a client of Specter Pearson Litt, is called in to save Harvey from the mess he is in with a partner of another firm.
However, Barkley may need to put in a lot of effort to help Harvey, as the brilliant lawyer is still reeling from the shock of Donna leaving him for Louis, professionally. Donna was the only person who could keep Harvey in check and since her departure from his professional life; he is more or less lost. With Donna working for Louis, the two are no longer professionally involved; hence they do not have to be cautious about being together romantically. A ‘heart-to-heart’ with the NBA player, Charles Barkley, during the customary client-partner outing could do Harvey some good. Barkley will be seen telling Harvey what he is missing out on being with the woman he loves. Suits Season 5 begins on Comedy Central on June 25.
