A new Michael Jordan documentary is in the works, and this time it will focus on his two-year stint with the Washington Wizards, according to Sam Amico. After the success of Netflix's "The Last Dance," fans are eager to watch more documentaries about MJ's well-decorated career in the NBA.

Many glorify Jordan's days with the Chicago Bulls, but tend to forget the two seasons he played with the Wizards.
Here are some details that haven't been revealed yet.
It has not been confirmed which studio will be doing most of the production. Additionally, the number of people who will be interviewed, including the players and coaches who will be involved, for the documentary hasn't been revealed. And lastly, there is no date for its release. But given that it was announced earlier this year, it could come out late in 2023.

How was Michael Jordan's stint with the Wizards?
Jordan's return to the court with the Wizards was truly unexpected. The team struggled to be winners under his leadership. That's why the solution he could think of was to play for Washington in hopes of putting them back into relevancy. The team didn't win enough to be a playoff team with MJ on the court, but it was fun for the fans.
In his final two years, the six-time champion still was an All-Star twice. He wasn't the same player, only averaging 21.2 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists. Jordan was still the biggest player in the league at the time, despite not achieving much success with Washington.
