NBA star LeBron James is reportedly behind a new documentary series titled "Shut Up and Dribble"— a slam-dunk jab at the advice Fox News host Laura Ingraham once offered.

James, now playing for the L.A. Lakers, will serve, along with his business manager, Maverick Carter, as an executive producer of the three-part series for Showtime, Variety reported Monday.

The show — which will chronicle the modern history of the NBA and its players — will premier in October.

"If being a star athlete is inherently a political experience, 'Shut Up and Dribble' tells that complex and dramatic story from the past to the present and from the inside out," Showtime President David Nevins wrote in a news release, Mediaite reported.

"LeBron James is one of many competitors whose place in the spotlight has led not to silence but perspective, and he, Maverick Carter and [director] Gotham Chopra have given us an important, insightful docuseries that should bring their fans and fellow citizens to a higher level of discourse, rather than the dismissal satirized in the title."
