Kyrie Irving to Play in Drew League Before LeBron James Saturday

LeBron James won’t be the only NBA star to put his talents on display at the Drew League on Saturday.

Apparently, Nets star Kyrie Irving will be on the court at the Los Angeles Pro-Am showcase as well, according to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.

Drew League commissioner Dino Smiley confirmed to McMenamin that both Irving and James are expected to play on Saturday. Irving will reportedly take the court at 11 a.m. PT with James coming on just a few games after at 1:45 p.m.

Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports first reported that James was poised to make his return to the Drew League this year for the first time since 2011.
