The clip reminds us that one of the biggest names in basketball today was once a normal high school kid — fooling around along the hallways, hanging out with his friends, and dancing to a beat. Back then, only a few knew his name. Basketball scouts, teammates, close friends, and teachers were the only ones who knew of his basketball talent.

Fast forward to a decade later, Kyrie Irving is one of the most popular names in all of basketball. To kids and die-hard basketball fanatics, Irving is revered as a basketball superstar. But in reality, he once was a kid just like us.
