NBA All-Star Game: Cavaliers’ Kyrie Irving admits he was forced to let go of his ‘arrogance,’ ‘aura’ as he learned to play with LeBron James

NEW ORLEANS: Kyrie Irving will reprise his popular “Uncle Drew” character from Pepsi commercials in a full-length feature film.

He’s poised to make his fourth appearance and second start in the NBA All-Star Game Sunday night at Smoothie King Center.

The Cavaliers’ defense of their NBA title looks on track with a 7-1 record in February and Irving is averaging 24.4 points per game, his highest at the break in his six-year career.

His reputation as the league’s best big-shot maker is growing by the week. He followed up his 3 for the ages in Game 7 of the NBA Finals with similar heroics this season against the Warriors, Raptors and Wizards.
