Available since October 9, the series “ Starting 5 ” of Netflix behind the scenes of the NBA features LeBron James, Jayson Tatum, Anthony Edwards, Jimmy Butler and Domantas Sabonis for its first season. But now we learn that Lauri Markkanen could have been there.
“ I assume it was this series » revealed recently the Finn, who would have possibly taken the place of Domantas Sabonis, another European. “ They contacted me for a Netflix series, so maybe it was another one, but that's the only basketball series I've seen, so I guess it was this one. »
Lauri Markkanen, however, kindly refused to allow us to delve into the world of Jazz and in his private life, unlike his five adversaries whose stories are told in ten episodes.
“ I didn't want to bring more people into the locker room » was justified inside Utah. “ When everything is going well and people are filming you in your car after a match, it's cool. But what would it have been like if things had gone differently? I just know my personality and I know it would have been too much for me. I just wanted to focus on basketball and the team, without anyone else around. Then, I'm pretty private about my family life so I didn't want to involve him either.. »
