VIDEO: NBA stars use innovative take on Jingle Bells to promote new Christmas Day uniforms
NBA stars LeBron James of the Miami Heat, Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls have taken part in a special rendition of 'Jingle Bells' as part of an advertisement for new Christmas Day football-style uniforms.
As the video shows James and Durant teamed up with other NBA players to shoot basketballs through hoops with bells on them to play the famous tune.
The new uniforms - designed by adidas - are the latest move from the NBA to incorporate 'sleeved' tops into professional basketball attire.

The focus of the Christmas Day uniforms will be the large metallic team logo on the front with the player number of the left sleeve.
“We worked closely with adidas to create an innovative new uniform design for our Christmas Day games,” said Sal LaRocca, NBA Executive Vice President, Global Merchandising. "The BIG Logo collection will provide a unique look oncourt and a variety of products for our fans."
Ten NBA teams, including both the Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks - who play in London three weeks later - will wear the uniforms when they take to the court on December 25.
