The untitled HBO series about the Los Angeles Lakers has added five to its cast, with Bo Burnham also exiting the series
Burnham had been cast in the role of Celtics legend Larry Bird
Sean Patrick Small will instead play Bird. Bird is described as a basketball star who hates the spotlight; preferring instead: Budweiser, ratty jeans, and brutally, ruthlessly destroying his opponents on the court. He and Magic Johnson, who have been pitted against one another since their legendary NCAA championship duel, continue their rivalry for the next decade.
Haaskivi is repped by Lasher Group. Hilson is repped by CAA, Neon Kite, and Goodman Genow. Mayenge is repped by Eris Talent Agency and Eleven 7 Artist Management. Small is repped by Schiowitz Artists Management Inc. and Arc Collective. Young is repped by Making Stars Talent Agency.
