Despite a tumultuous season with many player trades, the Cleveland Cavaliers advanced to the NBA Finals to go head-to-head for the fourth year in a row.

They might be off to a rough start, but with LeBron James — who is arguably the greatest basketball player ever — as the leading man, anything is possible.

If you're a fan of the Cleveland Cavaliers, we know you'll be cheering them on as they attempt to avenge last year's finals loss — and having the right team gear is a crucial.

From authentic team jerseys and shorts to LeBron's signature Nike sneakers, you'll find all the fan gear you need here.

Check out all the must-have gear for Cleveland Cavaliers fans, below:
