Quick PSA: I’d just like to point out it’s 2026 and the #1 docuseries on Prime is about the American Basketball Association. The world may be healing. Watch Soul Power and thank me later. It’s that good.

@Super70sSports thanks so much for spreading the love about Soul Power!!

Feeling a bit overwhelmed by the incredibly positive reaction to Soul Power so far. 🙏🔥🥹 We’re especially happy for the ABA Guys who may finally get the legitimacy they deserve. If you enjoy Soul Power, please tell others about it. That’s the best way to honor the ABA guys!

"The league was way ahead of it's time." Soul Power: The Legend of the American Basketball Association has officially dropped on @PrimeVideo. @JuliusErving discusses with @MadDogUnleashed what made the league so special.

Man I wish I could have attended some #ABA games to see @JuliusErving in his prime when he was dunking on EVERYBODY! And a young Iceman George Gervin. A young David Thompson SKYWALKING👊🏾 The #ABA had much better athletes and style than the NBA.
