PHILADELPHIA \u2014 LeBron James is set to film a documentary tracking his final seasons in the NBA, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line.<\/p>\n
James has already been shooting with a camera crew for multiple seasons, so a potential documentary could contain much more than just his time with the Sixers.<\/p>\n
\u201cAndy Thompson, acclaimed executive producer and principal videographer from The Last Dance docuseries that so unforgettably told the story of Michael Jordan\u2019s final season in Chicago \u2014 and so much more leading up to it \u2014 has been a notable presence at James\u2019 games since the 2022-23 season at least,\u201d Stein wrote.<\/p>\n
The documentary could also include live streaming components, Stein said. James said his decision to join the Sixers on a two-year contract will be his \u201cfinal decision,\u201d and expects to end his NBA career in Philadelphia. Stein said that the windfall from the documentary could help compensate for the veteran minimum salary that James was prepared to accept from any team that signed him.<\/p>\n
So far, James has not announced any official plans to produce a documentary, so there\u2019s no information about length or where it could potentially be distributed. James is signed through 2027-28, so next year may not even be his final NBA season.<\/p>\n
Philly sports stars have been the subject of numerous recent documentary projects, including the Eagles\u2019 turn on the in-season edition of “Hard Knocks,” Saquon Barkley\u2019s documentary on Prime Video in 2025, and Jason Kelce\u2019s Prime Video series \u201cKelce\u201d and the recent 30 for 30 chronicling the \u201cPhilly Special\u201d 2018 Super Bowl run.<\/p>\n
But none of them would be nearly as highly anticipated as a documentary as James\u2019 “Last Dance,” especially if the Sixers make a deep playoff run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FILE – Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James stands on the court in the closing minutes of Game…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":963304,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[40],"tags":[56514,8585,56504,49909,56525,56526,7366,56509,56507,4219,56508,56513,6262,56524,44894,56506,56522,56512,56505,56515,728,3091,56518,1260,50,593,2830,56519,85,56510,56521,56520,56511,62,67,132,68,9752,56517,56516,56523],"class_list":["post-963303","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-bruin","tag-butler","tag-butler-eagle","tag-cabot","tag-callery","tag-cherry-valley","tag-community-news","tag-connoquenessing","tag-cranberry","tag-crime","tag-east-butler","tag-eau-claire","tag-education-news","tag-evans-city","tag-fairview","tag-government-news","tag-harmony","tag-harrisville","tag-high-school-sports-news","tag-karns-city","tag-local-news","tag-mars","tag-mount-chesnut","tag-nba","tag-news","tag-obituaries","tag-pennsylvania","tag-petrolia","tag-political-news","tag-portersville","tag-sarver","tag-saxonburg","tag-slippery-rock","tag-sports","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us","tag-valencia","tag-west-liberty","tag-west-sunbury","tag-zelienople"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/963303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=963303"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/963303\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/963304"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=963303"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=963303"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=963303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
