Kyrie Irving, James Harden and Kevin Durant will start together for the Brooklyn Nets for the first time against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday evening, the team announced.
Irving, who has not played since Jan. 5 due to personal reasons and for violating the league's health and safety protocols, told reporters on Tuesday that he was "happy to be back. Happy to be around these guys. Addressed the team, addressed everybody that needed to be addressed ... It's time to move on. Happy to be back."
On Jan. 15, the NBA fined Irving $50,000 for attending a private indoor party during his absence.
