After the Cavaliers won the city of Cleveland its first title since 1964, Nike released a commercial commemorating the event.
In the new minute-long spot, titled “Worth the wait,” Cleveland fans watch as LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love celebrate a title on the floor. Not one of them can speak, watching, relieved, as the city wins a much-desired championship.
The commercial includes fans of all ages, and ends with a small fan in a Kyrie Irving jersey and a headband freaking out.

LeBron took home Finals MVP, the third of his career, in unanimous fashion. He finished with a triple double, helping the Cavaliers overcome a 3–1 deficit for the first time in Finals history.
