He's one of Cleveland's favorite players and now probably a favorite son. Kyrie Irving has accomplished a lot since his NBA debut in 2011.

The 25-year-old just finished another season with the Cavaliers, falling short of winning another NBA Championship. Cleveland is still proud of Irving and the entire time and it's certain his dad who couldn't be more proud.

Kyrie attributes much of his success to his father, Drederick, who gave up his own professional basketball career to take care of him and his sister.
