From executive producer Adam McKay (HBO's Succession), this dynamic series chronicles the history of one of the most revered franchises in sports history. After clinching the 1980 NBA championship title, S2 finds the Lakers contending with ongoing power struggles, controversies, and record-breaking contracts. After an injury, Earvin "Magic" Johnson (Quincy Isaiah) butts heads with Coach Westhead (Jason Segel) and teammate Kareem Abul- Jabbar (Solomon Hughes), causing Jerry Buss (John C. Reilly) to seek the help of Pat Riley (Adrien Brody), a decision that could change the fate of the game forever. Combining humor and hubris with its unique visual style, Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty offers a larger-than-life look at a team that defined an era - both on and off the court.
