The NBA content world is full of highlight reels, trade rumors, and hot takes, but every once in a while, a gem pops up that blends comedy, creativity, and culture in the perfect way. That’s exactly what happened when the TikTok account HoopToon dropped its viral cartoon video titled “NBA Stars Going To The Bathroom Edition.”
The clip has taken social media by storm, generating thousands of fan reactions, with many calling it “the funniest thing I’ve seen this offseason.”

The HoopToon account, which has 7,768 followers and over 400,000 likes, is known for its animated NBA skits. But this video may be its best yet. In just under a minute, it hilariously visualizes how different NBA superstars would act when simply trying to go to the bathroom, and the results are pure gold.
James Harden starts things off with a signature move: he takes a stepback, just like on the court, before casually taking a leak. Joel Embiid follows with slapstick brilliance, dramatically falls, clutching his body in classic “foul-baiting” form before finally taking a leak, reminding fans why he’s one of the league’s most notorious foul drawers.
Ja Morant, never one for subtlety, soars through the air in an acrobatic high-flying trip to the bathroom, perfectly embodying his fearless playing style.
Kyrie Irving delivers a hilarious zig-zag journey to the toilet, bouncing and dancing his way forward like a basketball wizard dribbling through defenders.
Victor Wembanyama takes his shot from an absurd height, showcasing his towering 7-foot-4 frame. Damian Lillard waits until “Dame Time” hits on his watch, then unleashes the flow with deadly timing. Donovan Mitchell, always streaky, hilariously “makes some, misses some” in the most literal sense.
Paul George gets roasted next. With an injury, he started podcasting mid-bathroom trip, and ultimately missed, highlighting his injury reputation and his newfound off-court media persona.
Luka Doncic wanders around the world while holding a burger, showcasing his flashy, all-around style. Jamal Murray misses multiple times, until the Lakers logo appears, and he turns into a Super Saiyan, referencing his tendency to torch L.A. in the playoffs.
Giannis Antetokounmpo comes in like a massive stream, powerful, direct, and nearly unstoppable. Nikola Jokic follows with three neat streams, symbolizing his patented triple-doubles.
Then comes the fan-favorite moment: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander calmly begins his trip, but referees arrive and move the toilet, symbolizing his mastery of drawing phantom fouls. Fans couldn’t stop laughing, calling it “so real.”
Zion Williamson hobbles in injured, then becomes an absolute force once he actually plays, echoing the hopes and frustrations surrounding his career.
Kevin Durant walks into not one, not two, but three different bathrooms, symbolizing his team-hopping career, yet still hits the target every time. Bronny James is lifted into position by his father, LeBron, completing the metaphor for how his career has been supported and protected.
Stephen Curry, of course, isn’t even close. He’s across the room, casually draining a long-range leak from the logo, just like his three-point shots. And finally, Cooper Flagg appears with Adam Silver standing beside him, signaling that the future of the league is in good hands.
Fans flooded the comments, with many calling the video “peak NBA humor” and praising HoopToon’s attention to detail. One user wrote, “SGA and Steph are so real.”
Another joked, “Paul George missed the toilet and started podcasting. This is too accurate.”
In an offseason filled with speculation, this cartoon reminded fans why they love the NBA, not just for the game, but for the personalities, quirks, and comedy that come with it.
