Netflix announces ‘Starting 5’ season 2 cast for 2024-25 NBA Season

In late August, Netflix announced the launch of a new NBA docuseries called “Starting 5,” produced by LeBron James‘ Uninterrupted studio, which featured James, Jimmy Butler, Jayson Tatum, Anthony Edwards and Domantas Sabonis.

The 10-episode series premiered on Oct. 9, releasing behind-the-scenes footage from the 2023-24 season for each player. On Tuesday, the popular streaming platform announced that it will have a second season with a new cast: Reigning NBA champion and Finals MVP Jaylen Brown, Kevin Durant, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, James Harden and Tyrese Haliburton.

Each of these five players will be followed throughout the 2024-25 season, which tipped off on Oct. 22.

Gilgeous-Alexander is an MVP candidate while Haliburton and Durant, one of the most recognizable faces in sports, are fresh off winning Gold Medal with Team USA; Brown is coming for throats after being snubbed off Team USA, hoping to lead the Boston Celtics to a second consecutive title; Harden is hoping to keep the Los Angeles Clippers afloat in the first year of the franchise playing in a brand new arena with Kawhi Leonard currently absent due to injury and Paul George in Philadelphia.

Anthony Davis’ Dominance Through 3 Games Cannot Go Unnoticed

Netflix recently launched two NFL docuseries called Quarterback and Wide Receiver, so this isn’t the first sports-centered series it’s launched within the last two years. In this league, however, there’s always some sort of drama, which is an acquired taste from a public perspective. It’s a league that never sleeps.

The inaugural season of “Starting 5” received 7.2 out of 10 stars from IMDB with a small sample of reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. What are you looking forward to in Season 2?
