In a video shared to social media by the NBA, Irving walks into the locker room holding the trophy and asks, "Hey y'all, just checking in on you. Y'all good?" You can hear chuckles off-screen as Irving adds, "I love y'all the same, bro. It ain't nothing personal!" before other players in the area laugh.

Irving made his presence felt in limited action in both games of the All-Star mini-tournament, totaling 11 points, six rebounds, four assists and four steals in just 15 minutes across the two contests.

Irving seemed to have a particular appreciation for both the opportunity to compete in the event and his All-Star Game win.
