If there’s one thing about Kyrie Irving, it’s that he’s clutch.
Last night against the Indiana Pacers in a big game that’s still determining playoff seeding, the Boston Celtics clawed their way back into the matchup at home thanks to Kyrie. He was hitting three’s, dribbling past defenders in transition and basically put the team on his back to win the game.
His clutch play came at the end, with the game tied at 112-112 and 10 seconds left. On a long pass cross court, Kyrie ended up with the rock and shimmied his way past Pacers defenders to give the Celtics the two-point lead with .05 left.
That was game.
Irving finished with 30 points and 5 assists on the night as Boston moves up to that fourth spot in the Eastern Conference with only a few games left.
