LeBron James has been handed a brutal reality check after the NFL's Christmas Day viewing figures crushed the NBA's.

LeBron James boasted about the NBA's Christmas Day ratings but the league was slam dunked by the NFL's two games on Netflix.

Netflix set records as the most-streamed NFL games in U.S. history while the NBA had its best holiday numbers in five years according to Nielsen.

The Sacramento Kings fired head coach Mike Brown, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Friday. The Kings are currently on a five-game losing streak.
