CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Jordan McRae said he found out late Saturday morning he'd be starting for the Cavs in place of the injured Kyrie Irving against the Hornets.
This was unusual because, well, McRae hadn't started at all this season.
"I didn't want to tell my mom or my dad because I didn't want the extra pressure or, you gotta play good tonight," McRae said. "I just wanted to treat it as if it was a normal game."
So how did mom and dad find out?
"I guess they found out when they turned on the TV," he said.
