The Cleveland Cavaliers are NBA champions and social media erupted
The drought is over. For the first time since 1964, Cleveland has a champion. LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers dethroned the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. The King & Co. are NBA champions after a 93-89 victory at the Oracle in Oakland.
Social media reacted:
