The narrative behind the “Dunk the Halls” presentation starts with Mickey’s holiday request to Santa Claus, wishing to see NBA players in Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort for the first animated NBA game on Christmas Day. This aligns with ESPN and the NBA’s celebrated legacy of innovation, which includes alt-cast presentations that leverage the exceptional reach and capacity of The Walt Disney Company.
