Some may not realize it, but some of the best shows on Netflix are sports documentary series. From the well-reviewed Last Chance U to Untold: Crime & Penalties, there’s no shortage of excellent content to satisfy those looking to dive into the world of athletics. One of the prime series on the platform is Quarterback, which highlights some of the best NFL players in the game. Now, the streamer is reportedly aiming to produce an NBA show in that same vein, and I’m so here for the ballers that have been selected for the production.
As of this writing, a title for the upcoming show has yet to be revealed. However, as The Athletic’s Shams Charania explained on X, the goal is for the show to mirror aspects of Quarterback. That series – which became available to Netflix subscribers in summer 2023 – is well done and provides in-depth interviews with its subjects and more. The on-the-field footage it captures is also sweet. While the notion of this motif being applied to NBA players is exciting enough for this fan, I’m even more hyped for who’s allegedly going to be showcased.
