Lakers News: Kobe Bryant Hired Film Crew to Shoot Final Season After Learning of Michael Jordan Footage

The NBA has been on hiatus since March 11 due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, leaving a massive basketball void in the hearts of fans everywhere. The league should currently be in the midst of the 2020 NBA Playoffs, but instead commissioner Adam Silver is trying to find a way to safely go about resuming play.

While there have been no live games, ESPN did its part in helping ease that burden by releasing the highly-anticipated docuseries, “The Last Dance” ahead of its original June release. The program features the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls team, which was notorious for all their off-court drama and what would be Michael Jordan’s final season with the franchise.
