* WrongBathroomIncident: For the Ultimate Game, there are two locker rooms: one for the Monstars and one for the Tune Squad. The Tunes conduct a LockAndLoadMontage in theirs, including the only girl player, namely Lola Bunny. She shares the same locker room as the boys and is seen taping her knuckles there. Presumably, she also stripped down and suited up there as well.

* BrushOffWalkOff: During the Ultimate Game, Daffy Duck finds himself holding the ball, causing the five Monstars target him. In a panic, Daffy passes the ball to Granny, who is sitting out of bounds, acting as a cheerleader. The Monstars switch target, and gang-tackle Granny. Lola Bunny gives Daffy a DeathGlare, to which Daffy responds, "She was wide open." Lola says nothing, but turns her back on Daffy, nose high, not deigning to speak to such a cowardly poltroon.

This 1996 live-action/animated film is what happens when you base a feature-length film upon ''a sneaker commercial''. Really. Nike had ordered a few commercials featuring UsefulNotes/MichaelJordan and an animated WesternAnimation/BugsBunny facing off against alien cartoon characters. After a meeting between producer Creator/IvanReitman and Nike executives, it was decided to turn the concept into a feature film.

The film is notable for introducing Bugs' girlfriend WesternAnimation/LolaBunny, who has been featured in most ''Looney Tunes'' projects made since then. It's not to be confused with ''Film/LooneyTunesBackInAction'', which was allegedly made to be the direct antithesis of this movie. It was also one of the earliest movies to feature a [[https://www.spacejam.com/1996/ tie-in website]], which is still running to this day (and has not been updated since 1998).[[note]]Warner eventually finally noticed it, however, so they archived the site under a different URL. They've since moved it again to a proper spacejam.com, but this time it's HTTPS protected. It has since been moved again to a specific page, with the main domain now being used for the sequel.[[/note]]

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: If you wanna get ''technical'', this movie is this towards Michael Jordan's retirement and return to basketball. In real life, Jordan retired from basketball due to burnout from the game, which was accelerated by participating in the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics and the murder of his father, joined Minor League Baseball for a few years and returned to basketball due to a combination of not wanting to be considered a "replacement player" during the 1994-95 Major League Baseball strike and the Chicago Bulls faltering heavily. As well, while he was considered a decent player, the movie considers him a terrible player who is way out of his league. Maybe it's just people's expectations as compared to basketball.

* ArtisticLicenseSports: Realistically, a basketball team, even one made up of elite players, would need a roster of more than just five for injuries, foul-outs, player fatigue, and/or stratgetic reasons. However, considering that this is the Looney Tunes universe, the Monstars are ''far stronger'' than the Tune Squad, negating the injury and tactical aspects, and most, if not all, fouls, whether realstic or cartoony, are disregarded for pacing and plot convienence.
