Kyrie Irving does Twitter damage control after picture of him and two girls is posted
Kyrie Irving’s game on the floor is developing nicely, but his pimpology off of it needs some work. The reigning NBA Rookie of the Year had to do some damage control on Twitter after a picture of him with his arms around two girls appeared online for a brief period early Christmas morning.
Our friend Stiletto Jill snagged it while it was up, and she says it was posted to his Instagram account.

The photo was quickly deleted, but Irving acted swiftly as if he had been busted and began trying to clean up his tracks. The Cavaliers guard tweeted the following messages:
That was not me posting that I’m really sorry fans, good night

I’m really appalled to see that!! Smh what the Internet can do now a days, good night smh man!

Once again I’m sorry for that everybody, I would never post something like that, hope y’all have a very special Christmas, happy holidays!!

Why was he so panicked? It seems like he didn’t want the word getting back to his girlfriend:
Would never post something like that, especially when I have my wife @nataagataa, crazy!!!

Kyrie’s girlfriend, whom he affectionately called his wife in the tweet, is Natalia Garibotto. Based on her Twitter feed, it looks like she was in Brazil for Christmas. If you’ve seen her, you’ll understand why Irving was trying hard to protect their relationship — she’s a keeper:
One more selfieeeee twitter.com/NataaGataa/sta…

Luckily for Irving, Garibotto didn’t seem to mind the photo:
Kyrie should be thankful he found someone so understanding.
Irving is the same guy who got himself into a big mess last year with a woman who calls herself “Miss Hawaii.” He really needs to be more careful with what he’s doing off the court.
