The Los Angeles Lakers have quite the storied history, from the Hall of Fame players that have donned the Purple and Gold to the seventeen NBA Championships.
The Lakers were one of the pillars of the league they truly became the NBA’s glamor franchise when Jerry Buss bought the team back in 1979. Buss turned the Lakers into must-watch television, and his ingenuity and business savvy propelled the franchise to worldwide fame and acclaim.
The story of the Laker franchise is one everyone should know about and in an appearance on the “All The Smoke” podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, Jeanie Buss revealed that a project documenting all things Lakers currently is in the works:
“We are making a nine-part docuseries about the Lakers starting from when my dad bought the team in ’79 and very much people I thought enjoyed ‘The Last Dance’ so we’re give our fans what they’re hungry for… So the docuseries will tell the story, especially in the context of my dad buying the team until we won the championship last year and it all weaves together and how my dad had really hoped that there would be a day that Magic and I work together running the team.
