On Wednesday, November 9th, Cavs fans everywhere are invited to join the “who's who” of Cleveland for the team's biggest event of every year: the annual “Big Shots and Little Stars” fundraiser, to benefit Flashes of Hope and The Children's Tumor Foundation. Cavs.com will provide a front row seat for viewers to enjoy the always-uplifting fashion show that night, which will see all their favorite Cavs players paired with pediatric cancer survivors, strutting their stuff on the runway.
Fans can watch LIVE on CAVS.COM as Kevin Love, J.R. Smith and the rest of their teammates turn in their usual uniforms for well-tailored suits. Instead of running the court, our “big shots” will walk the runway with the “little stars” of the night – pediatric cancer survivors. The Cavaliers ownership group will join the team and many other Cleveland-area “big shots” for a very special evening to help raise awareness and funds for pediatric cancer research.
Tune into Cavs.com at approximately 8:15 p.m. on Wednesday as Fred McLeod and Allie Clifton provide fans an up-close look at the action both on the runway and behind-the-scenes.
