Strus laced the shot and Rocket Mortgage Arena was sent into hysterics as the buzzer sounded and the Cavaliers walked away victorious.

It appeared that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was watching the game, and was left in agony when his hometown Mavs lost the game.

With Mahomes in disbelief after the loss, Kelce took time to celebrate the Cavaliers victory

The Tyler, Texas native went to Twitter – quote tweeting a video of the shot with the caption ‘Ain’t no way’ and tagging his teammate and Cleveland, Ohio native Travis Kelce.

Kelce responded in kind saying, ‘Straight cash!!! Them boys got the juice right now!! @cavs.’

Even though he’s lived outside of Northeast Ohio for a number of years, Travis still has a connection to his home town.

That includes watching the Cavaliers, who have had an incredibly strong season in 2023-24.

They currently sit second in the Eastern Conference and are seven-and-a-half games behind the Boston Celtics.

They’re well into a playoff spot – 16.5 games ahead of the Brooklyn Nets, who sit on the outside looking in.

In the grand scheme of the NBA, the Cavaliers own the fifth-best record behind the Celtics and three Western Conference teams: the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the Denver Nuggets.
