JR Smith went shirtless to Cavaliers championship parade (Video)

Ever since the Cleveland Cavaliers won the NBA Title, there has been one near-constant throughout: shirtless J.R. Smith.

When the Cavaliers arrived back in Cleveland, Smith stepped off the plane shirtless. If you were expecting that to change for the team’s championship parade on Wednesday, you were sorely mistaken – and to add to it, Smith was wearing his game shorts, too.

Smith appeared to be having the time of his life as he lifted a fan to look at the crowd in a scene straight out of “The Lion King.”

So, JR, where’d the shirt go?

You know what, when you bring home Cleveland’s first championship since 1964, I guess you’re entitled to wander around without a shirt on. No judging here. And moreover, when you consider how much this means to Smith, he’s well within his rights to live it up and enjoy every second of this.
