Kyrie Irving's rough start to the season hit a new low on Friday night against the Atlanta Hawks.
First scoreless game of Kyrie Irving's career. Previous career low was 4pts last April 14 in loss at Philly (he was 1 of 6 shooting then)

More specifically, Irving finished with zero points on 0-for-9 shooting, going 0-for-3 from beyond the arc and 0-for-3 from the free throw line.
He also ended the game with a plus-minus of minus-19 throughout the 20 minutes he played.
Cue the jokes:
Kyrie Irving had 0 points. Jordan Crawford had 22 points. Just another night in the Association.

Kyrie Irving scored zero points. Mike Brown has always been noted as a defensive coach, but he's stopping his own team.. @haralabob

Just checked the Cavs box score vs Hawks. Not sure if Kyrie Irving or Anthony Bennett.

Oh, and in related news, Anthony Bennett finished Friday's game with zero points on 0-for-3 shooting.
