Kyrie Irving, and the rest of the Cleveland Cavaliers, may not get much resistance from the Eastern Conference this postseason, but mother nature does have a secret weapon to stop Irving- bed bugs. The disgusting, tiny vermin are an under-the-radar clickbait topic. All of us sleep, have a bed, and hence bed bugs are like sharks: you don’t think about them a lot, but when they come up on the internet, you can’t help but click on the story.
Bed bugs are scary, and they’re not anything to mess around with.
They got to Uncle Drew, bad enough to sideline him from regular season action. Kyrie Irving got just three hours of sleep before the Cavs took on the Oklahoma City Thunder, and he also developed some flu like symptoms and a sore back. Via ESPN:
Hilton and environmental health inspectors from the Oklahoma City-County Health Department both called it an isolated case and said the room was being treated.
“The comfort of our guests is a top priority, and we are very sorry to hear about Mr. Irving’s stay,” Hilton said. “Since bed bugs can be easily transmitted anywhere and are often lodged in luggage or on clothing, our hotel maintains high levels of vigilance and we perform regular inspections.”
Sleep well tonight readers.
Kyrie Irving and the Cavs remain on top in the East.
