Kyrie Irving looks unrecognizable after shaving

Kyrie Irving has sported a beard for nearly his entire NBA career with the Cavaliers.

Sure, there was a time when Irving didn't have a beard (like at Duke and part of his rookie season). But we've grown so used to seeing Irving with a beard the past six years that his decision to shave this week rendered the Cavaliers guard completely unrecognizable.

This is Kyrie Irving:

He doesn't even look like the same person - it's crazy:

Typically, when someone shaves their beard, they look younger. That was not the case with Irving who was roasted for adding 20 years to his appearance. He might want a new team, but NBA fans definitely want Irving ditch the new look and grow back the beard.

They do have a point.
