Netflix released the official trailer for its highly anticipated sports series Starting 5. Click inside to check it out and see what’s in store for this season.
Starting 5, a new 10-part Netflix sports series, provides an intense, behind-the-scenes look at the 2023-24 NBA season through the eyes of five of the league’s biggest players – Jimmy Butler of the Miami Heat, Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves, LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers, Domantas Sabonis of the Sacramento Kings and Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics.
The series captures their battles on and off the court as they chase greatness, push through injuries, and balance the demands of family and legacy. James pushes himself harder than ever to stay healthy – and dominant – in his 21st season, while Edwards electrifies with his rapid rise. Butler’s relentless drive propels the Heat, Sabonis anchors the Kings with his versatile play, and Tatum leads the Celtics in their quest for a record 18th championship. Starting 5 delivers an unfiltered view of life at the pinnacle of professional basketball.
Starting 5 was directed by Susan Ansman, Trishtan Williams, and Peter J. Scalettar with Peter J. Scalettar serving as showrunner. The executive producers on the series are Maverick Carter, Jamal Henderson, Philip Byron and Randy Mims (for UNINTERRUPTED); President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Vinnie Malhotra and Ethan Lewis (for Higher Ground Productions); Peyton Manning, Jamie Horowitz and Sam Pepper (for Omaha Productions).
