Perk: 'The Lakers are the only team better off with Kyrie' (1:20)

The Lakers are the only team that will benefit from the addition of Irving. The time has come.

1:25 PM ET

The commissioner of the pro-am basketball league said that Irving is expected to play on Saturday. He won't be playing at the same time as James.

At 11 a.m., Irving is playing. The game will start at 1:45 p.m.

James hasn't played in the Drew League since the NBA was shut down due to a labor dispute. James is going to return to the Drew.

Irving and James became the first teammates in Finals history to score 40-plus points in the same game when they won the 2016 NBA Championship with the Cleveland Indians.

James is in the final year of his contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, but he will be able to sign an extension with L.A. starting next month.

According to sources, Los Angeles has been trying to get Irving in a deal that would send Russell Westbrook to the Nets. The talks have yet to reach an agreement.

NBA players have traveled to the Charles Drew Junior High School gymnasium to play in the Drew League since it was founded in 1973.
