It depicts the dramatic Showtime era and the story of stars such as Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.


Winning Time recap of Episode 5 and what to expect next

The fifth episode ended on a high note with the team on a roll, winning one game after another and quickly rising up the standings. Since McKinney’s efforts were paying off, he decided to spend some time away from the basketball court to play tennis with Paul Westhead. An accident befell him on the way and he sustained a severe head injury. There is no doubt that this will be a major setback in the Lakers’ season. With they be able to get to the next level? This will be the question haunting us for the rest of the season.

The promo for the sixth episode gives us hope about seeing the Lakers flourishing, be it whether Kareem Abdul-Jabbar discovering more of his inner fight or Magic Johnson pushing himself to reach the next level. We might even see Buss having to answer some financial questions and make some decisions considering how an investment the team is. The promo for the next episode also builds up on Buss' daughter who would be taking over the management.
