Cleveland Cavaliers roster, news and rumors reveal that Kyrie Irving returned to the court and "looked great" in the process, as forward Tristan Thompson took his charm to the side court.

The ESPN reported the latest Cleveland Cavaliers roster, news and rumors as it said that Kyrie Irving didn't seem to exhibit any soreness in the loss against the Dallas, 108-102, following his sprained right ankle which caused him to miss three games.

Kyrie Irving even showed that he can still dominate the game as he led his team with 23 points.

Cavs coach David Blatt told the sports site: "I thought he looked great. The mere fact that he's out there playing the minutes that he played and at the speed that he played and that he competed well on defense was really a good sign."

"Kyrie, he's a special player and a special guy, and you've all had the fortune of seeing him for a while and thank goodness he's going to be around here for a long while, because he's special. He really is," he added.

Kevin Love, who has been playing well in the preseason, did not play in the Dallas game after complaining of a stiff neck. Lebron James, meanwhile, scored 12 points.

Meanwhile, in other Cleveland Cavaliers roster, news and rumors, Tristan Thompson turned on the charm during the pregame interview at the Dallas Maverick game on Friday, Cleveland.com reported.

"Thompson was asked about moving back to his natural power forward position. He gave a lighthearted response, jokingly referring to her as "Tina" and capped it off by planting a kiss on the right side of Clifton's hair. Thompson then departed, rejoining his team for warmups drills," the site said, referring to courtside reporter Allie Clifton of Fox Sports Ohio.

After turning on the charm, Tristan Thompson acquitted himself by finishing with 17 points and 11 rebounds.
