Fred McLeod’s passion poured through the TV no matter what game he was covering. The longtime sportscaster and announcer, who called Cleveland’s NBA championship in 2016 and told his cameraman to keep rolling when Stanford’s band was on the field in 1982, died Monday. He was 67.

The Cavaliers said McLeod died suddenly, but did not elaborate.
