Kyrie Irving Asked 'Are You Going To Leave Us Like LeBron Left Us?' By Young Cavs Fan (VIDEO)

'Are You Going To Leave Us Like LeBron?'

Kids still say the darndest things.

During a recent community appearance, the Cleveland Cavaliers' point guard was asked by a young fan if he'll be skipping town like the team's last superstar.

"Are you going to leave us like LeBron left us?"

The 21-year-old point guard, who was drafted with the No. 1 overall selection in the 2011 NBA Draft a year after James took his talents to Miami, gave the answer that everyone in Ohio was hoping to hear.

"It's a great question," Irving replied. "Um, no, I won't leave."

The Cavs have already exercised the team option in Irving's current contract for the 2013-2014 season and will presumably do the same with the team option for the 2014-2015 campaign. If a contract extension is not agreed upon, Irving would be a restricted free agent ahead of the 2015-2016 season.
