It’s a testament to Magic Johnson, the man, that basketball only accounts for about half of “They Call Me Magic,” a four-part Apple TV+ docuseries devoted to his life, including the rich chapters that followed his NBA stardom. Think of it as a more satisfying companion to HBO’s “Winning Time,” or more focused alternative to ESPN’s comprehensive Bulls chronicle “The Last Dance.”
