NBA fans are getting a closer look at stars like LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers, Anthony Edwards from the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Boston Celtics champion Jayson Tatum. As Tatum aims for an MVP season in 2024-25, fans are getting insights into his previous season, including his performance against the Indiana Pacers in the 2024 Eastern Conference finals. A clip from Netflix’s new documentary “Starting 5,” featuring the five-time All-Star and referee Tony Brothers, has gone viral on social media.
In the clip, Tatum challenges Brothers over a no-call on Andrew Nembhard, which leads to a light-hearted exchange. Brothers humorously remarked, “It looked like a Jayson Tatum move,” to which Tatum shot back, “He ain’t no Jayson Tatum.”

Tatum has not commented on the clip or referenced “Starting 5” on social media, despite the Netflix documentary’s huge popularity since its release on October 9. The doc has even prompted a reaction from Edwards online and is currently the second-most searched documentary on Google.
The series also includes Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler and Sacramento Kings All-Star Domantas Sabonis. All ten episodes are now accessible on the streaming platform.
Anthony Edwards blasts Jayson Tatum in Netflix documentary
Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards doesn’t hold back in Netflix’s NBA documentary, “Starting 5.” Fans get a glimpse of his daily routine and his thoughts on Jayson Tatum during a game between the Timberwolves and the Celtics. After defeating Tatum and the Celtics in overtime last November, Edwards candidly shared his views on the 26-year-old star, according to Bleacher Report’s Doric Sam.
“You saw Tatum trying to get a switch; I locked him down twice,” Edwards told his teammates. “Tatum was talking smack, saying, ‘Yeah, I’m here,’ and I replied, ‘I’m coming again.’ Talking about ‘best player in the league’… y’all are tripping.”
