NBA superstar Kevin Durant recently decided to come to his era's defense. Lately, there is plenty criticism about the league relying too heavily on the 3-point line. So Durant used the Back In The Day era to defend today's game.

Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant wants to help the NBA in revamping its viewership amid Christmas Day success.

Late Christmas night, following a series of NBA games, the Phoenix Suns capitalized on their long-range shooting, sinking their first six 3-point attempts in a 110-100 victory over the Denver Nuggets.

Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick's family is singing about Christmas being over. The couple shared an Instagram video of themselves, along with their kids Travis and Sosie Bacon, each singing “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, complete with new and hilarious lyrics.

The Phoenix Suns (15-14) host the Dallas Mavericks (19-11) on Friday, airing on Arizona's Family (Ch. 3 TV) at 7 p.m. This is the first of back-to-back games for both teams, and the second of their three-game season series.

Dallas star Luka Doncic (calf strain) is out for at least a month. The Suns are led by Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal without Booker, and the Mavericks' other top players are Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson.
