CLEVELAND (AP) — Dean Wade made five 3-pointers and scored 20 points in the fourth quarter, and Cleveland won a replay review in the final second to stun Boston 105-104, ending the NBA-leading Celtics’ winning streak at 11 games.
With NFL star Travis Kelce urging on Cleveland’s crowd from a courtside seat, the Cavs overcame a 22-point deficit in the fourth quarter.
Wade scored a career-high 23 points and his putback dunk with 19.1 seconds left put the Cavs ahead 105-104.
He personally outscored the Celtics 20-17 in the fourth.
Cleveland held on when officials overturned foul call on a last-second jumper by Jayson Tatum, who scored 26 points for Boston.
Kelces turn out for bobblehead giveaway
The Kelce brothers showed up for their own giveaway.
No, Taylor Swift wasn’t with them.
Cleveland-born Travis and Jason Kelce were both in attendance Tuesday night as the Cavaliers paid tribute to the NFL stars with a souvenir bobblehead depicting them in Cavs jerseys and holding basketballs.
During the first timeout in the opening quarter, the Cavs presented Jason, who retired from the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday after 13 seasons, with a framed No. 62 jersey.
Travis Kelce, a star tight end with Kansas City Chiefs and Swift’s boyfriend, proudly held his brother’s jersey above his head as the crowd roared.
Swift is on tour in Singapore.
