Legacy: The True Story of the LA Lakers captures the remarkable rise and unprecedented success of one of the most dominant and iconic franchises in professional sports. Featuring exclusive access to the Buss Family and probing, revealing interviews with players, coaches, and front office execs, this 10-part documentary series chronicles this extraordinary story from the inside - told only by the people who lived it. When charismatic real estate tycoon Dr. Jerry Buss purchased the Los Angeles Lakers in a wildly risky and complex business deal, nobody could've predicted just how much success was to come. Kicking off the "Showtime" era in 1979, the notorious L.A.-playboy pioneered the business of basketball. He raised the price of floor seats, introduced dancers and a live band, opened an exclusive private club inside the arena, and cultivated famous fans in Hollywood. Over the last 40 years, the team captured 11 titles and retired the jerseys of some of the NBA's most legendary players.

A retooled lineup and new coach attempt to live up to the Laker legacy, as Kobe Bryant shoots for the record books. But he won't be content until they win another title. Meanwhile, Dr. Buss empowers his son Jimmy to assume more power in the franchise.
An aging Dr. Buss cements his legacy, while the franchise seeks another historic title amid dysfunction on and off the court. A dramatic and emotional loss puts the franchise and family into unprecedented disarray.
Jeanie Buss encounters upheaval in her personal and professional life as she struggles to balance running a family and a business. As she attempts to find equilibrium, the events of 2020 throw the franchise, and the world, into chaos.
