The team will wear special uniformsThe Cleveland Cavaliers have a long-standing tradition of wearing black uniforms to home games. In fact, the team adopted black as their primary color in 1965 as a symbol of solidarity with players from other teams who were protesting racial inequality.
The color was also used as a way to represent the city’s iconic electric trolley cars, which were painted black up until 1954.
This tradition will continue during Wednesday night’s ring ceremony, as the Cavs will be wearing their “familiar” and “dreaded” black uniforms for the first time this year.

This ring program is a showing of appreciation that celebrates and rewards the hard work and dedication from everyone across the organization, no matter what their specific role was, in the Cavaliers championship journey.
The 2016 NBA Finals was the championship series of the National Basketball Association’s (NBA) 2015-2016 season and the conclusion of the 2016 playoffs. The Eastern Conference champion Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the defending NBA champion and Western Conference champion Golden State Warriors four games to three in a rematch of the previous year’s Finals. The Cavaliers became the fourth team to win the championship after losing the first two games, joining the 1969 Boston Celtics, 1977 Portland Trailblazers, and 2006 Miami Heat. It was the 14th rematch of the previous NBA Finals in history, and the first Finals since 2008 in which the number one seed in each conference met. It was the second straight rematch in back-to-back years, as the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs played each other in 2013 and 2014. Cleveland’s LeBron James was named the Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP). James won the Finals MVP award unanimously, receiving all 11 Finals MVP votes.

NBA Finals MVP winner LeBron James propelled the Cavaliers to the historic comeback, completing an all-time great Finals performance in which he became the first player in NBA history to lead all players in a playoff series in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks.
