Space Jam was about the Looney Toons being invaded by aliens from outer space. These aliens are looking for acts to take to their planet, Moron Mountain. The Toons refused and they challenged these aliens to a basketball game to raise the stakes.

The Looney Toons took Michael Jordan from the real world and asked him to play for them.
