CLEVELAND (AP) – The Latest on the parade for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who made a historic comeback to win the NBA title (all times local):

9:45 a.m.

Fans of all size, shapes, colors and ages are lining downtown Cleveland streets dozens deep hours before a parade celebrating the Cavaliers’ improbable NBA championship.

Twenty-nine-year-old Megan Esposito got to work early on Monday to make sure she could take a personal day. She said she recently moved back to hometown Cleveland and she’s “never leaving again.”

Bars throughout downtown had filled by 9 a.m., and lines at coffee shops snaked out the door and onto the streets.
