CHICAGO: After the Cavaliers’ loss Monday in San Antonio, the weight of defending a championship, the frustration of a disappointing night and the responsibility of playing point guard cut straight to Kyrie Irving’s heart.
So Irving headed to his sanctuary, one that he said can sometimes “get jaded by other things that this life brings.”
While his teammates showered and dressed, Irving went back to the court at AT&T Center to get up shots. When he returned, he draped a towel over his head and spoke privately with LeBron James.
After practice Wednesday at Roosevelt University in Chicago, Irving wouldn’t share what he and James discussed.
