Kyrie Irving wasn't able to convert on his first two chances for a game-winning shot on Saturday vs. the 76ers, but the third time was a charm. Even with Philadelphia sending a double-team as soon as he got the ball past halfcourt, Irving took it hard to the hoop and finished with his left hand.

The Cavs won 127-125 in double overtime. Irving finished with 39 points and 12 assists.
