Kyrie Irving Is Stunned When Reporter Asks Him If LeBron James Is Father Figure

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been off for a few days as they prepare to take on the Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference Finals, and apparently the reporters are starting to run out of things to ask.

During an interview with Kyrie Irving, a reporter asked the 23-year-old if LeBron James played a "parental role" with the Cavaliers this season. Irving was stunned by the question, and he made it clear that LeBron was a great leader, but not a father figure.

Considering LeBron is only seven years older than Irving, it would be a little odd for the 23-year-old to treat the four-time MVP like a parent.
