Cleveland Cavaliers celebrate Jason Kelce's career on Kelce brothers bobblehead night

Fresh off his retirement announcement, longtime Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce was honored by his hometown NBA team Tuesday night.
The Cleveland Cavaliers celebrated the stalwart center's career during a break in the action of their game against the NBA-best Boston Celtics. Kelce, who grew up and played his high school football in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, was presented with a framed, custom Cavaliers jersey while fans gave the six-time All-Pro a standing ovation.
He was sitting courtside with his brother Travis Kelce — perhaps you've heard of him — in tow.
The Cavs jointly honored the brothers with a bobblehead they gave away to fans.
Jason joked that he looked "way better than I was expecting." Travis thanked the Cavs for "making me look good" by sculpting a spinning basketball on his likeness' finger. ("I can't do that. So, thank you for making me look good," Travis said.)

Unfortunately, the bobblehead is not Shaq-proof. The NBA legend somehow broke Jason Kelce away from the bobblehead stand.
Jason Kelce, 36, called it a career Monday after 13 seasons. He racked up six first team All-Pro nods, which might very well put him in the Pro Football Hall of Fame one day. Travis Kelce, the 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs standout, will almost certainly end up there, as well.
The brothers both played for Cincinnati following their high school careers in Cleveland Heights. Their "New Heights" podcast — its name a nod to their hometown — has become one of the more popular sports podcasts around.
