The Big Three garner all the attention for the Cleveland Cavaliers, but there's a number of unsung heroes who contributed to their championship.
One such player was James Jones, the sweet-shooting bench forward that has three rings to his name.
Jones played a grand total of 55 minutes in the Cavaliers' title run, scoring a mere six points, but he made his contribution off the court by helping a beleaguered Kevin Love find his confidence when he struggled to start the Finals.
Love would eventually bounce back with a strong performance in Game 7, and he took some time to thank Jones for keeping him in high spirits during darker times.
