Game recognized game between LeBron James, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n

The Lakers star and Cavaliers icon shouted out the power couple on Instagram as they sat courtside for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals between Cleveland and the Knicks at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Kelce was wearing the LeBron 7 MVP colorway from his signature Nike line, which was certainly an added reason to shout out the couple.<\/p>\n

James, who played 11 seasons in Cleveland, posted a photo of the Chiefs tight end and the 14-time Grammy winner in their seats to his Instagram Stories with a caption that included a salute and crown emoji.<\/p>\n

The Cavaliers lost the game 121-108 to fall behind 3-0 to the Knicks, who now sit one win away from the NBA Finals.<\/p>\n

Kelce, an Ohio native who played his college ball at Cincinnati, went viral for more than his presence at the game after chugging a beer that hyped up the crowd and left Swfit having to put her hand to her face to hide her laughter.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t help the home team as the Knicks, whose offense has impressed James, never trailed in the game, leaving Kelce looking broken and slumped in his seat in the fourth quarter. The four-time NBA champion gave up his \u201ccrown\u201d to Kelce as the most famous athlete in Northeast Ohio in 2023 during the height of the buzz around Swift and Kelce.<\/p>\n

James, who is currently a free agent, was on the team the last time the Cavaliers were in the Eastern Conference finals during the 2017-18 season before they eventually lost to the Warriors in their fourth-straight trip to the Finals. <\/p>\n

The NBA\u2019s all-time leading scorer did deliver the franchise its only NBA championship when he and Kyrie Irving helped rally Cleveland from a 3-1 deficit to beat Golden State in seven games in 2016. A return to Cleveland to likely end his career can never be ruled out.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kelce also knows a thing or two about rings, having won three Super Bowls with the Chiefs, who he returned to on a one-year contract this offseason after retirement rumors had swirled around him following the last two campaigns. Kansas City is hopeful to have quarterback Patrick Mahomes back for Week 1 after he suffered a torn ACL against the Chargers in December.<\/p>\n

His most important ring, however, was given to Swift when the couple got engaged in August and the two are expected to get married in New York City on July 3.<\/p>\n
