LeBron James can’t contain excitement for ESPN’s ‘Last Dance’ Michael Jordan documentary

LeBron James apparently is ecstatic about the latest Post exclusive.

The NBA superstar tweeted his pleasure about ESPN’s decision to move up the release of its highly anticipated 10-part documentary about Michael Jordan, “The Last Dance,” to April 19 because of the NBA postponement due to the coronavirus, as first reported Monday night by the Post’s Andrew Marchand.

“April 19th can’t come fast enough. I CAN NOT WAIT!! Yessir,” James wrote, adding a popcorn emoji with the hashtag #LastDance.

James had suggested last week on Richard Jefferson’s Road Trippin’ podcast that the release date be moved up from its scheduled June release with everyone holed up in their homes due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“Listen, if I’m Michael Jordan, I’m going in there and I’m making a conference call and I’m like, ‘OK, what’s the reason that we’re going to hold onto it until June now? Compared to now when everybody is at home?’” James said. “Because it’s done [being edited]. It’s done. Yeah, it’s done.”

The documentary is about the 1997-98 season, the last season – and sixth championship — for Jordan and coach Phil Jackson with the Chicago Bulls. ESPN partnered with Jordan, Netflix, the NBA and Mandalay Sports Media in producing the series.
