Cavaliers wearing black jerseys for Game 2: 2017 NBA Finals

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Cavaliers are back in black in the Finals.

Cleveland will wear its black, t-shirt style jerseys for Game 2 of the 2017 NBA Finals. The Cavs wore the same shirts in games 5 and 7 on the road in the 2016 Finals, when they recovered from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Warriors.

Cleveland had worn its blue jersey on the road for its first eight games. The Cavs were 7-0 until losing to the Warriors 113-91 in Game 1.

Coach Tyronn Lue said he didn't know the Cavs were going to wear the black shirts tonight.
