The secret about who is starring in the Space Jam sequel has been out of the bag and there were plenty of people who gave their opinion on what they though about LeBron James being that dude.
Turns out the guy who starred in the first film, and happens to be one of the greatest NBA players of all time, has his own ideas about it too.
So who would Michael Jordan pick if the decision was up to him? It would be Blake Griffin.
When asked at a basketball camp by one of the kids in attendance, MJ was quick to name the Los Angeles Clippers forward. Not only is Griffin a member of Jordan Brand (LBJ is not), he has some acting experience thanks to his Funny or Die sketches. King James also starred in movies (see: Trainwreck), but it doesn’t seem like he’s in Jordan’s favor as far as the film is concerned.
Do you agree with MJ’s pick?
