Netflix is rolling out a new, star-studded “Starting 5” for the 2024-25 NBA season.

The second season of the Netflix docuseries will follow Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant, Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown, Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden, Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton.

Netflix officially announced the first season of “Starting 5” in August with Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, Celtics forward Jayson Tatum, Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler, Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards and Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis taking center stage. The 10-episode first season premiered on Oct. 9.

Teri Garr, the quirky comedy actor who rose from background dancer in Elvis Presley movies to co-star of such favorites as “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has died. She was 79.

Garr died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer. Garr, who battled other health problems in recent years, underwent an operation in January 2007 to repair an aneurysm.

The actor, who was sometimes credited as Terri, Terry or Terry Ann during her long career, seemed destined for show business from her childhood.

Before Matthew Perry’s death in October 2023, the embattled actor seemed to be enjoying a renewed vigor and a zest for life, according to two men who were closest to him.

Two of the “Friends” star’s lifelong friends, brothers Brian and Chris Murray, sat down exclusively with TODAY’s Savannah Guthrie and spoke about Perry’s final year and how encouraged they were by what they saw in him.

“He was absolutely on the right path,” Brian Murray said. “He was writing. He was reading scripts. He wanted to direct. The book had just put a massive spark in his step, and he was ready to get really back into business. So that’s one of the biggest tragedies.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs is accused in one of two lawsuits filed Monday of drugging and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old boy in a New York City hotel room in 2005.

The second lawsuit accuses the jailed hip-hop mogul of similarly assaulting a 17-year-old would-be contestant on the reality television series “Making the Band” in 2008.

The lawsuits filed in state Supreme Court in New York are the latest in a wave of lawsuits in which accusers allege they were sexually assaulted by Combs at parties and meetings over the last two decades.
