SAN FRANCISCO -- Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving said he thinks reuniting with former Cleveland Cavaliers teammates LeBron James and Kevin Love will be "fun" at All-Star Weekend.
James, one of two captains along with Golden State's Stephen Curry in the new All-Star format, drafted Irving as a starter and Love as a reserve Thursday, bringing together the former teammates for the first time since Irving requested a trade over the summer.
Irving said he'll always have a connection with his former Cleveland teammates.
"I think you've heard it if you've talked to championship winners before but, when you're on a championship team, it's just a bond that can't be broken forever," Irving said.
