Travis and Jason Kelce bobbleheads are revealed by Cleveland Cavaliers ahead of game vs. Boston Celtics as brothers travel back home to raise money for local schools

The NBA’s Cavaliers have unveiled their Kelce Brother bobbleheads ahead of Tuesday’s game against the visiting Boston Celtics, where Cleveland’s Jason and Travis will be in attendance to raise money for local schools.

Jason, the former Philadelphia Eagles center, announced his retirement yesterday.

Cleveland will be giving away bobbleheads of each brother and there will be exclusive Kelce/Cavs merchandise for sale, with 100 percent of proceeds benefiting local schools.

The brothers are Cleveland Heights residents and lifelong fans of their hometown Cavaliers.

Both Kelce bobbleheads are wearing blue Cavs jerseys in their respective football NFL jersey numbers, No. 87 for Travis and No. 62 for Jason.

Although Jason always saw himself as destined for the football field, Travis briefly considered a college basketball career.

Kelce’s younger brother, a former high school hoops star in Cleveland Heights, received Division I hoop scholarship offers before committing to play football for the Cincinnati Bearcats.

“West Virginia is where I wanted to play basketball,” Jason said in December, revealing he almost accepted a scholarship to play for former Mountaineers coach Bob Huggins, who coincidentally previously coached at Cincinnati.

Travis also got his nickname, Big Yeti, while playing pickup basketball at UC.

“For me, it’s all about Big Yeti,” Jason said on the couple’s New Heights podcast in October 2022 when asked about his favorite nicknames for his brother. “Great Yeti is the best nickname you ever had.”

As Travis explained in 2022, he was a harrier in Cincinnati from 2008 to 2012.

“I had a big beard, I had long hair, I had chest hair, back hair, arm hair, leg hair,” Travis said.

“I was just a big old Yeti, man. All the friends on the field called me ‘Big Yeti’ – mainly because I was a low-post player, so I was just standing there giving work and handing out work in the post.”

Cleveland will still be without Donovan Mitchell (R) due to a bruise in his left knee

Kelce’s brother’s visit comes at an important time for Cleveland coach JB Bickerstaff’s team.

The Cavs are third in the Eastern Conference standings with a 39-21 record, while the Celtics are the runaway leader at 48-12.

Boston is on an 11-game winning streak and has won eight in a row away from home.

The Celtics played their most impressive half of the season on Sunday as they built a 44-point halftime lead en route to a 140-88 home win over Golden State.

Tuesday’s game will kick off a five-game road trip that also takes Boston to games against Denver, Phoenix, Portland and Utah.

Cleveland is coming off Sunday night’s 107-98 loss to the New York Knicks.

The Cavaliers were without leading scorer Donovan Mitchell, who missed the past two games with a bone bruise in his left knee.

Mitchell will miss at least three more games, including tonight’s game against Boston, after receiving a PRP injection in his injured knee.
