Irving Enjoying Another All-Star Season For the Cavs

Irving missed a few gamesย earlier in the season because of hamstring tightness, but the injury proved to be minor during a scalding start to the Cavaliers' title defense.

Alongside LeBron James and Kevin Love, Irving has found room to operate, gashing opposing guards with his handle, scoring at strong rates from the outside and slicing defenses with his savvy in the pick-and-roll.

Through 43ย games this season, Irving is averaging 24.2ย points, 5.9ย assists and 1.2ย steals on 46.6ย percent shooting from the field and 39.5ย percent shooting from three-point range as part of Cleveland's superstar triumvirate.

Irving is also finishing at a solid clip around the rim. According to NBA.com's player-tracking data, Cleveland's floor general is shooting 49.4ย percent on drives and scoring sevenย points per game on those plays.
