Man, Starting 5 on Netflix was a wild ride, wasn't it? Dropping in October 2024, it threw us courtside with NBA giants like LeBron James, Jimmy Butler, Anthony Edwards, Domantas Sabonis, and Jayson Tatum. The show wasn't just about dunks and three-pointers—it got real, showing these guys as dads, sons, and regular people with big dreams and bigger pressures. After binging Season 1, fans like me are dying to know: Is Starting 5 Season 2 a thing? Here's the scoop on what's cooking. Has Starting 5 Season 2 Been Greenlit?
Good news! Netflix confirmed Starting 5 Season 2 on October 30, 2024, just a few weeks after the first season premiered. That's a fast turnaround, which shows how much faith the streaming giant has in the series. Word is, cameras are already rolling for the next installment, so the production team isn't wasting any time. Fans can rest easy knowing more NBA drama is on the way. Who's in the Lineup for Starting 5 Season 2?
The first season featured a killer roster of players, and Season 2 is switching things up with a fresh group of NBA stars. Here's who's confirmed to be in the spotlight: Jaylen Brown – Boston Celtics' championship wing
– Boston Celtics' championship wing Kevin Durant – Phoenix Suns' scoring legend
– Phoenix Suns' scoring legend Shai Gilgeous-Alexander – Oklahoma City Thunder's MVP hopeful
– Oklahoma City Thunder's MVP hopeful Tyrese Haliburton – Indiana Pacers' playmaking wizard
– Indiana Pacers' playmaking wizard James Harden – Los Angeles Clippers' bearded icon
This mix of veterans and young guns promises some juicy storylines. From Brown chasing another title to Durant hunting for redemption, there's no shortage of narratives to explore. Fun fact: Utah Jazz's Lauri Markkanen was approached for the show but turned it down, saying he wanted to keep his personal life private and avoid any team distractions. What's the Story for Starting 5 Season 2?
If it's anything like the first season, Starting 5 Season 2's gonna mix sweaty game nights with real-life feels. Last time, we saw Jimmy Butler deal with his dad's sickness and LeBron open up about Bronny's heart scare. It hit hard. This season'll probably track the 2024-25 NBA grind, zooming in on these guys' highs and lows.
With this crew, we might get spicy playoff moments or even trade buzz—imagine Harden in a new jersey! Some X fans are losing it over a possible Finals Game 7 getting big screen time. I'm crossing my fingers for scenes of Haliburton clowning with teammates or Brown celebrating with Boston fans. It's gonna be hoops and heart, no doubt. Starting 5 Season 2 Potential Release Date
No exact date yet, but let's do some detective work. Season 1 followed the 2023-24 season and landed on October 9, 2024, right after the Finals. Season 2's tagging along for 2024-25, which wraps in June 2025. So, I'm betting on a late 2025 vibe—maybe September or October. Netflix's got it on their 2025 list, so it's coming, y'all.
