Emmy-winning director Kenya Barris, the creator of the ABC sitcom “Black-ish,” is set to direct a feature-length documentary which traces the life and career of NBA icon Jerry West.
Prime Video announced an April 16 premiere date and released the official key art for “Jerry West: The Logo.”
Through dozens of never-before-told stories including insights from former and current NBA stars Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, and Shaquille O’Neal, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, and West’s own wife and several of his children, Barris in his documentary debut, paints a complex portrait of a man driven by perfectionism.
Jerry West is immortalized as the silhouette on the NBA logo—a singular honor that speaks to his towering impact on basketball and American sports culture.
