Kyrie Irving came out firing during Game 3 of the 2016 NBA Finals.
The Cleveland Cavaliers point guard had 19 points at halftime, which included three 3-pointers.
Irving and the rest of the starters were removed from the game with under 5 minutes remaining as they were well in control.
He finished with 30 points (12 of 25) with 8 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and only 2 turnovers in 37 minutes.
Irving scored 26 points in Game 1, but had just 10 in Game 2. Didn’t matter as the Warriors won both contests convincingly to put the Cavs in an 0-2 hole in the best-of-7 series.
In those games combined, Irving had just 5 total assists and hit on only 1 of 7 3s. In Game 3, he had bettered them by halftime.
Here are some of Irving’s highlights from Game 3:
