Kyrie Irving, the first overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, made headlines for his real estate transactions in Cleveland. He acquired a lavish 5,500-square-foot residence from former Cleveland Cavaliers player Daniel Gibson and his wife, Keyshia Cole, for a reported sum of $800,000. This impressive mansion became Irving’s home until his departure from Cleveland and subsequent trade to the Boston Celtics.

 

The mansion boasted six bathrooms and four bedrooms, providing ample space for Irving’s comfort. Noteworthy basketball-themed accents adorned the property, including a basketball hoop in the living room and an outdoor basketball arena. During his downtime from the basketball court, Irving likely made use of the home gym, movie theater, and recording studio that the mansion offered. The master bedroom and ensuite featured a luxurious walk-in closet, adding to the opulence of the residence.

 

Despite residing in this stunning mansion during the peak of his career, Irving later decided to sell it. Initially listed for $1.7 million in 2017, the property did not find a buyer at the desired price. Eventually, Irving was forced to settle for a lower sale price of $755,000.

 

While Irving’s time in the Cleveland mansion may be a thing of the past, his real estate ventures have undoubtedly left an impression. The photographs of the mansion give a glimpse into the luxurious lifestyle enjoyed by the NBA champion during his time in Cleveland.
