The sports world was rocked by the announcement that Fred McLeod, the voice of the Cleveland Cavaliers and a long-time fixture on Detroit sports television, died on Monday at the age of 67.
McLeod spent the last 13 seasons as the TV play-by-play announcers for the Cavs, calling many of the biggest moments in LeBron James’ career.
And James shared his thoughts on Twitter on Tuesday morning.
