With Christmas just around the corner, Budweiser has released a Holiday commercial that features Kyle Kuzma, Steven Adams, and Tim Hardaway Jr. playing the role of Christmas elves:

Not only is the ad hilarious, but it also sends a pretty important reminder about the need to hydrate during the imminent drinking binges that accompany the Christmas season.

Budweiser certainly did their homework on this one, as they have opted to feature three of the fastest rising stars in the NBA today — all of whom have been outstanding for their respective teams this season.

The arrival of LeBron James to the team has done wonders for Los Angeles Lakers sophomore Kyle Kuzma. The 23-year-old has been successful in building on a very impressive rookie campaign, and he is now averaging 18.2 points (on 48.3 percent shooting), 1.7 3-pointers, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.6 blocks in 32.1 minutes of action. He is currently the team's second-leading scorer behind LeBron's 28.0 points per game.

Big man Steven Adams has been a beast for the Oklahoma City Thunder this season, and he has firmly established himself as the team's main man in the middle. The Kiwi is putting up 16.2 points (on 59.1 percent from the field), 10.2 rebounds (15th overall in the league), 1.4 steals, and 0.9 blocks per contest.

As for the New York Knicks' Tim Hardaway Jr., the 26-year-old is doing a very respectable job holding down the fort as cornerstone star Kristaps Porzingis continues to rehab his surgically repaired knee. Hardaway is putting up 21.1 points, 2.9 3-pointers, 3.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and a steal per game as the team's top scoring option.
