James Harden Space Jam Sequel — The Monstars will always have length, so the Toon Squad will have to counter with speed and shooting. Harden brings the observable universe’s best beard, best Euro step and the ability to hit a three from several AUs away.

Bill Murray Space Jam Sequel — Bill Murray is just as popular in 2015 as he was in 1996, if not more. With the premier talent of the NBA flanking Murray, expect this “6-foot-2 in boots” swingman to be clearing out on all the isolation plays.
