Paul George Reveals Incredible Untold Kyrie Irving Story

Most basketball fans have seen the viral Team USA clip of Kyrie Irving putting on a dribbling clinic during a scrimmage. The video went viral at the time it came out, and has been regularly replayed for years. While almost everyone has seen it, the story behind that clip was recently revealed by Paul George, who was a member of that team.

"Obviously it was cool to be selected to the select team," George said. "That was like a dream come true. What people don’t see from that moment, was how tough it was. I don’t know if y’all seen the clip where [Kyrie Irving] like is doing some special shit. He's breaking down the whole team, put it behind his legs, bro that play happened because we could not get the ball past half court. [LeBron], [Kobe], they all picking up full-court... It was crazy, because like [Kyrie] took it upon himself, and that was I think his rookie year, like that was after his rookie season."

George told this story during an episode of his podcast, and it was incredible to get this behind the scenes look into one of the more iconic Team USA basketball clips. That team was absolutely loaded with talent, but it was a young Kyrie Irving that came in and stole the show during that scrimmage game.
