VIDEO: Teammates mess with Kyrie Irving after triumphant comeback

Sunday was a good day for the Cleveland Cavaliers, but more so for their star point guard, Kyrie Irving.

After the Cavs' 108-86 walloping of the Philadelphia 76ers, it was Irving who was pulled aside for the postgame interview, signifying that the three-time All-Star's return was a success.

During said interview, J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert - Cleveland's leading jocular duo - made it difficult for Irving to keep a straight face while speaking on the live broadcast.

In a weird way, Irving's impressive comeback performance earned him the right to have a towel thrown in his face in front of thousands of fans.
