CLEVELAND, Ohio -- LeBron James and Kyrie Irving are All-Star starters for a reason, you know?
The two leading scorers for the NBA's defending champion and the East's best team this season shined (per usual) in Cleveland's 118-103 win over the Phoenix Suns.
James, who in his 14th season was selected to start his 13th consecutive All-Star Game Thursday, nearly reached his fourth triple-double of the season with 21 points, nine rebounds and 15 assists.
Irving, who is headed to his fourth All-Star Game in six seasons -- second as a starter -- led all scorers with 26 points on 10-of-20 shooting.
