The Suns vs Nuggets game had a celebrity presence in the arena tonight. Electronic duo, The Chainsmokers, were in attendance hand-in-hand with Mat Ishbia, owner of the Phoenix Suns. The Denver Nuggets managed to subdue a Devin Booker-less Suns with a 119-111 victory. Kevin Durant, despite the loss, landed a double-double.

The famous DJ and production duo have a connection with Durant and his nickname, the Slim Reaper. Though not directly affiliated with it, one of their songs managed to catch strays.
