The Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA) have won their first franchise championship.
They were down 3 games to 1 against the Golden State Warriors, but lead by NBA legend Lebron James they were able to fight their way back and win the series 4-3, bringing the city of Cleveland, Ohio it's first national sports championship after fifty years. They are the 3rd team to ever come back from a 3-1 deficit and the first team to come back from being down 3-1 and win the championship.
LeBron James left Cavaliers in 2010 after a series of unfortunate losses and failing to win a championship there, he joined the Miami Heat where he won two national championships. Afterwards he returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2014 and promised his city a championship, he fulfilled that promise tonight.
