Cardale Jones at Cavs game: Let's 'bring another championship to Ohio'
An Ohio State quarterback who knows a thing or two about overcoming adversity to win a championship delivered a message Wednesday night to a team trying to do just that.
Cardale Jones, along with other members of the Buckeyes' title-winning team, were at Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals series between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls and featured on "Humongotron" to get the crowd hyped during a break in play in the first half.

Jones got on the mic and sent a clear rallying cry through Quicken Loans Arena.
"'Let's go bring another championship to Ohio," he said. "Let's go Cavs!"
As a redshirt sophomore, Jones, the Buckeyes' third quarterback of the season following injuries to Braxton Miller and J.T. Barrett, won all three of his starts - the Big Ten championship game, Sugar Bowl and national championship game.
The Cavs are trying to win their first NBA title in franchise history amidst the obstacle of losing "Big 3" member Kevin Love to a shoulder injury in Game 4 of their first-round series against the Boston Celtics.
