Actress Idina Menzel pivoted from her award-winning stage, film and music success to give back to her son’s local basketball coach, James Hunt, on Celebrity IOU. James owns Culture Run, a training clinic and sports camp that gives attendees the skills to succeed in both basketball and life. With the help of Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott, Idina surprised James by remodeling the detached garage of his family's new home. With his new league office and athletic suite, James is one step closer to running the centralized training facility he's worked so hard to develop.

“[James] found his calling,” said Idina. “He works really hard and his perspective on life is so important [to these kids]. There’s nothing like having a great male role model in your life. James is that.” The Scott brothers and Idina transformed the garage into a place where kids can congregate after school, socialize and sharpen their basketball skills. Shocked during the reveal, James expressed so much gratitude. “To see these kids develop is the most rewarding," he said. "This [new office] puts me in the position to build my business faster and reach more kids.”

James and his wife bought a new house with a traditional two-vehicle garage. It was the blank slate James needed to jump-start his basketball camp and take the clinic to the next level. James and his wife knew the court-adjacent garage would eventually become part of Culture Run, but Drew and Jonathan sought to optimize how the space could be most effectively used.

Drew and Jonathan wanted the remodeled space to have a “locker room vibe” while functioning as a home office and workspace for James. They created a couple of cozy spots for both James and his athletes to work, relax and review skills tapes: a round table in the back of the garage and a living room area complete with a 60-inch flat-screen television.
