Kyrie Irving · When it comes to the art and nuance associated with creating angles and locating unseen tunnels within a defense’s coverage, the NBA’s 77-year history likely hasn’t met a player quite like Kyrie Andrew Irving. Equipped with the answer to every equation a defense can throw his way, the Dallas Mavericks star splits through a potential double team with elegance, pushing his dribble just out of reach before elevating into an electrifying, double-clutch finish off the glass. Flipping his switch into postseason-form with the Mavericks eyeing the coveted No. 6 spot in the competitive Western Conference, Irving’s performance was equally versatile, with 23 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists, one steal, one block, and a 3-pointer in the win over the Golden State Warriors on March 13, 2024. · State of Mint · State of Mint
