Cleveland Cavaliers point-guard Kyrie Irving has declared himself fit to play in game one of the NBA Eastern Conference finals against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old has been hampered by a sore right foot and tendonitis in his left knee of late, but feels that he is well enough to feature tomorrow.
"Just being able to actually feel both my feet underneath me, especially when I'm shooting, it feels amazing," The AP quotes Irivng as saying.
"I don't want to be on the sideline at all, especially preparing for a big stage like this."
Irving is averaging just under 20 points per game in his first run in the playoffs.
