There wasn't much Kyrie Irving didn't do in Thursday's thrilling victory over the San Antonio Spurs.

The Cleveland Cavaliers' point guard hit a game-tying 3-pointer to force overtime, went off for a career-high 57 points and helped his team eke out a win to snap the Spurs' six-game winning streak. 

He set a franchise single-game scoring record with his outburst and is the only player in the NBA with two 50-plus point games this season. A night as impressive as Irving's doesn't come without highlights.

Case in point:

Irving - still just 22 years old - has already compiled numerous accolades over his four-year career. He was the 2012 Rookie of the Year, is a three-time All-Star, winning MVP at the 2014 event, and is the reigning USA Male Basketball Athlete of the Year.

LeBron James isn't the only superstar in Cleveland.
