CLEVELAND -- Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving welcomes a new addition to the family.

On Instagram, Irving posted a photo of him holding his daughter, announcing that she was named after her mother, Azurie Elizabeth.

"Azurie Elizabeth Irving 11/23/15 
35 hours of labor from her great mother and she came into the world to bring a shine to my world that I never thought was possible. I love you so much, and my heart grew the first time I felt your heart against mine. 
Mommy, I gave her your name because I know you will bless her and our family the same way you blessed me. I love you."

The Cavs star says the baby's middle name is from his late mother, who died when he was 4-years-old.
