Cavs Star Player Kyrie Irving Giving Diamond Championship Ring To His Father: Son Of The Year

CLEVELAND - The Cavaliers star player point guard Kyrie Andrew Irving is planning on giving up his diamond champion ring to his father. The said ring will be received by Kyrie Irving and his other Cleveland Cavs teammates on Tuesday night when the Cavs open the NBA 2016-17 season against the New York Knicks.
According to Bleacher Report News, the Cleveland Cavaliers star player Irving certainly earned the diamond championship ring. The superstar’s average score during the NBA Finals was 27.1 points per game, winning Game 7 with his three-pointer shoot during the last minute of the game. But the star player doesn't want to hold the sketch on keeping the highlight for too long.

In an interview last Saturday, Cavs star player Irving announced that he will give the championship ring to his father Drederick Irving. Kyrie added that he gave almost everything to his dad including every one of his accomplishments, every MVP award, every trophy that he had since the Cavaliers star player was about 12 years old.

The Cavaliers star player and his father share a very tight bond. Irving’s father used to play professionally when they were in Australia. His dad taught him basketball and raised the Cavaliers star player and his siblings when their mother tragically died when he was still 4 years old.
Kyrie Irving helped Team USA win the gold medal at the recent 2016 Summer Olympics. With this achievement, he became the fourth member of Team USA to lock up the NBA championship and an Olympic gold medal in the matching year. He joined LeBron James, Michael Jordan, and Scottie Pippen in this record.

This is one of the best gestures done by the Cleveland Cavaliers star player and a touching tribute to his father Drederick for all of the effort he did to raise a good and talented son like him. It also illustrates that for some players, the memory of winning a title has more worth than the actual physical championship token.
