Malkin roots for Cavaliers, Mozgov at NBA Finals in Cleveland
Turns out the AHL's Lake Erie Monsters weren't the only champions in the building.
Evgeni Malkin showed up to watch Game 6 of the NBA Finals between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors at Quicken Loans Arena on Thursday night.

The Pittsburgh Penguins forward had an amusing way of showing support for Cavaliers center and fellow Russian Timofey Mozgov.
Mozgov played only two minutes in Cleveland's blowout victory, missing his lone shot, grabbing one rebound, and swiping one steal.
Malkin won his second Stanley Cup championship with the Penguins on Sunday, and his winning ways rubbed off on the Cavs, who forced Game 7 with a decisive victory over the Warriors in Cleveland's final home game of the season.
