Kyrie Irving is joining teammates Marcus Smart and Aron Baynes in the high rankings for the Hustle stat, Charges Taken. This not something for which Kyrie has gained a reputation. He only took six charges last season as a Celtic and three for the 2016-17 season as a member of the Cavaliers.

Smart is tied with Irving with nine charges taken thus far this season. Aron Baynes, out with a hand injury, has taken a total of seven so far.
