A Look at How Netflix’s New Trailer for ‘Court of Gold’ Is Revving the Excitement From the Paris Olympics

On Thursday, Netflix released the first trailer for its upcoming documentary series Court of Gold. The series promises to take sports fans back to the Paris Summer Olympics, showcasing on-court action and behind-the-scenes moments from the men’s basketball tournament.

Set to premiere on February 18, the six-episode series will feature 45-minute installments, offering an in-depth look at the United States, French, Canadian, and Serbian men’s basketball teams that competed in the tournament. Executive producers Barack and Michelle Obama bring their storytelling expertise to the project, promising a compelling exploration of this historic competition.

The selection of teams highlighted in Court of Gold is no coincidence, they feature a wealth of National Basketball Association (NBA) talent. Team USA, led by fan favorites Stephen Curry, LeBron James, and Kevin Durant, clinched the gold medal, while French stars Rudy Gobert and rising phenom Victor Wembanyama helped secure silver for their national team.

Serbia’s bronze medal victory was spearheaded by three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokić, while Canada’s team, featuring young standouts Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and R.J. Barrett, fell just short of a medal.

What Moments Will ‘Court of Gold’ Focus on?

The series will revisit some of the most electrifying moments of the men’s basketball tournament, including the dramatic semi-final between the United States and Serbia. In that game, Stephen Curry led Team USA to a remarkable 13-point fourth-quarter comeback.

Curry’s heroics continued in the championship game against France, where he wowed fans with a series of clutch three-pointers in the fourth quarter, solidifying the United States’ dominance on the world stage.

Expectations for Court of Gold are high, given Netflix’s success with sports documentaries and Olympic content. The streaming giant previously produced Simone Biles Rising, chronicling the gymnast’s return to greatness, as well as Sprintand Sprint Part 2, which provided an intimate look at track and field stars Noah Lyles and Gabby Thomas as they prepared for their Olympic performances.

If you want to relive the unforgettable moments of the Paris Summer Olympics men’s basketball tournament, make sure to watch Court of Gold when it premieres on Netflix on February 18.
