Ryan Kelly went off on Kyrie Irving and the Cavs Wednesday night, scoring 26 in one of the weirder games the NBA's seen lately.

The Lakers had some real adversity between injuries and fouls and at one point were down to just four players. In that situation though the NBA allows you to keep a guy who's fouled out in with a technical and one more for any foul he gets afterwards.

Former ACC great Steve Blake finished with a triple double and also took Kendall Marshall's starting spot away.
