CLEVELAND, OH - Kyrie Irving returned to Cavaliers practice on Sunday and says he hopes to be ready to play in the season opener on Tuesday.
Irving had all four wisdom teeth extracted on Wednesday and has been bed-ridden for the last few days. Irving said he has lost about 5 pounds.
The team beleives Irving will be ready for the opener and will most likely clear him to play against the Washington Wizards at "The Q" on Tuesday.
