A biography for Kyrie Irvinghasn’t been written yet.
“I'm not really a big X's and O's guy, but if you want to go there, I'm more of a space-the-floor type of coach: Five out, zero in, and that's the way we play basketball, screen and roll here and there, pocket passes everywhere; it's what it's about.”
“My focus is basketball, and that's it.”
“I've been musically inclined since I picked up an instrument in the fourth grade. I just really appreciate music. I love to listen to it; I love to sing. I wouldn't consider myself, like, a natural singer. I just developed it over time, honestly, just listening. I'm a great listener to music.”
“Multiple Bentleys isn't making anyone 'financially set.'”
“I do have a chef, but I still go out. Sometimes I can still blend in, and sometimes I get a little bombarded. It's the best of both worlds.”
“I don't leave home without my Skullcandy Crushers. I don't leave home without my Bible, without my phone, and without my computer.”
“My eventual goal is to win a championship. And before I retire, I just want to win a championship. That's it.”
“You want to keep the defense guessing.”
“I want to be on the cover of 'GQ.' That's a personal goal.”
“I went to my agent and told them, 'I want to be on another Disney show.'”
“I do feel like a Clevelander. Every time, when people ask me, I automatically say, 'My home is Cleveland.'”
“When I'm playing the 1-guard, I'm kind of seeing everything that's going on. When I play the 2, I have a more broader understanding of what's going on and where the screens are being set in order for not only myself to get open, but for my teammates.”
“When I'm playing the 1-guard, teams do a great job of just loading up and preparing for my drives and preparing for my three-point shots.”
“I can't even give my father a proper gift. Every single Father's Day means so much to me. I'm so close to him. He's my big brother, but also my father.”
“Draft day is a hectic day, especially for draftees and, more or less, for management.”
“I've worked countless hours in the gym, so I feel like I'm already prepared for the game. So when I'm listening to music pregame, it's really just about personal enjoyment.”
“Even during my injury, I had fun because I got to be a regular college kid.”
“I'm probably one of the most competitive people ever.”
“When it applies to the Olympics and making a decision, I have to claim Australia as my country.”
“All I do is sit at home and watch Netflix.”
