Hi everyone,

I’ve been trying to identify a cartoon I watched as a kid for years, but I haven’t been able to find anything that matches it.

Here’s everything I’m confident about:

It was 2D animation.
I watched it somewhere between 2000 and 2010 (the cartoon itself may have been older).
I most likely watched it on Super RTL, Cartoon Network, or Nickelodeon in Europe (Kosovo/Germany TV).
The main characters were white-feathered birds (closest to seagulls, pelicans, or storks—not humans in bird costumes).
They had orange beaks.
They had wings, not hands.
They walked upright on two legs.
They were adult birds, not kids.
Basketball was the main focus.
They played on a normal indoor basketball court, although there were scenes outside the court as well. I'd like to think an airplane was there at some point.
I remember at least one of them wearing a headband/bandana while playing.
The art style was Disney-like, not anime, not realistic, and not heavily anthropomorphic.

The closest visual style I can find is this stock illustration (not the actual cartoon, just very similar in appearance):

Things I’ve already ruled out:

I’m also fairly sure it wasn’t DuckTales, Tiny Toons, Looney Tunes, or any major Disney series.

Does anyone remember a cartoon like this, or know of an obscure European basketball cartoon featuring white birds?

Any suggestions are appreciated!
