Kyrie Little Mountain Irving

Hey look a legitimately uplifting and powerful story:

Wearing an eagle feather in his hair and wrapped in a traditional blanket Kyrie Irving was given the Lakota name "Little Mountain" in an emotional naming ceremony today in North Dakota: https://t.co/VBUov4tGRc

Kyrie’s mom, who passed when he was 4, was a member of the Standing Rock Sioux but adopted out as a child.

Kyrie has fully embraced his Native American heritage and participation in a Naming Ceremony is a big deal.

And he gets a super cool name – Little Mountain.

This is full on awesome and if you didn’t already love Kyrie, well honestly how could you not already love Kyrie but just add this one to the long long list of why he rules.

CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE CELTICS SEASON TO START!!!!!!!!!!!!
