Kyrie Irving walked out of practice on Wednesday with his head through the straps of his USA Basketball Select Team jersey, making it look like he was wearing a blue Superman cape.

Frankly, he has looked like Superman in workouts against the 2012 U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team here. Everybody seems to be talking about him, especially after highlights appeared in a recent YouTube video.

Asked who is standing out on the Select Team, LeBron James said, “Kyrie Irving is, definitely. For me, he stood out more than anyone. He’s a great talent. I see him in a couple of years being one of the best point guards that we have in this league, one of the top five point guards.
