Netflix will soon have a show about the NBA, releasing October 9, and we finally have a trailer to get excited about.
Starting 5 features a primary cast of LeBron James, Jayson Tatum, Jimmy Butler, Anthony Edwards and Domantas Sabonis. It is a 10-part series that provides an inside look at the 2023-24 NBA season. Each episode is a 45-minute long insight into their lives on and off the court.
This series will operate a bit like Drive to Survive about F1 racing, Break Point about tennis, Quarterback and Receiver about the NFL, as well as Full Swing about golf.
This trailer has some fun moments, including voiceovers from all of the main stars as well as LeBron James’ daughter Zhuri and a weird moment of James dressed as The Joker from Batman.
We also see Anthony Edwards singing, some mic’d up moments on the court, and a lot of the stars hanging with their families.
The series is produced by UNINTERRUPTED (from Maverick Carter) as well as Higher Ground Productions (from Barack and Michelle Obama) and Omaha Productions (from Peyton Manning).
