Dunk The Halls will air at midday ET on Christmas Day on ESPN2 as an alternate possibility for the San Antonio Spurs-New York Knicks tilt and have iconic Disney characters in a digital dwell recreation of the on-court motion.”
As if there wasn’t sufficient pleasure in regards to the Spurs resuming their rightful place on nationwide tv on Christmas, there shall be a co-occuring digital recreation of the Madison Sq. Backyard motion on ESPN2. I think about that the league and networks will announce nearer to the date every workforce’s beginning ‘characters.’
