While
Bronny James and the
Sierra Canyon (Chatsworth, Calif.) basketball team await word on
whether they'll be able to hit the hardwood in 2021, a documentary
coming to IMDb TV next month gives fans a look back at last
season's team that featured three five-star recruits and the sons of
LeBron James and Dwayne Wade.
"Top Class: The Life and Times of the Sierra Canyon Trailblazers" hits IMDb TV on Feb. 26. The docuseries is produced by LeBron James and longtime business partner Maverick Carter and gives fans an inside look at the team that finished 15th in the final 2019-20 MaxPreps Top 25 high school basketball rankings.
Led by McDonald's All-American selections
Brandon Boston and
Ziaire Williams, along with
Amari Bailey,
Zaire Wade and James, the Trailblazers finished the season 30-4 and captured the CIF Southern Section title before COVID-19 halted play days before the state finals.
One of the most hyped teams in high school basketball history played a challenging national schedule, traveling to a handful of NBA arenas and drawing massive crowds. An
early-season game at LeBron James' alma mater, St. Vincent-St. Mary (Akron, Ohio), saw Bronny hit a late bucket to help propel the Trailblazers to a 59-56 victory.
LeBron James was himself the focus of a 2008 documentary, "More than a Game," on his high school playing days with the Fighting Irish.
