NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - The NBA is getting real.

``NBA Access With Ahmad Rashad'' will follow the lives of a number of basketball stars, coaches and players. It is set to premiere January 28 on ABC.

The league's magazine show ``NBA Inside Stuff,'' which was co-hosted by Rashad and Summer Sanders, will move to NBA TV with Summers as host.

Rashad said that ``Inside Stuff'' debuted as the first show of its kind but that is not the case anymore; he said Friday that he wanted to do something far removed from it.

Cameras will follow such stars as Shaquille O'Neal, Richard Jefferson and Carmelo Anthony, as well as Suns coach Mike D'Antoni and the Maloof brothers, who own the Sacramento Kings. There will be scenes from their lives on and off the court, along with reports from places nationwide.
