Bingo' sweet rainbow jumpers were often the highlight of many dismal games for the young team. Fans will remember announcer Joe Tait's cry of "Bingo!" after another swish from Smith.

In the "Miracle of Richfield" season, Bingo was a key piece of that scrappy team. In Washington for Game 2, Smith scored a team-leading 17 points and made the game-winning shot with just seconds remaining to secure the 80-79 victory. The win served as the first playoff victory for the franchise and propelled the Cavaliers past the Bullets and into the Eastern Conference Finals.

"Bingo" ranks in the top 10 all time in franchise history in nine different categories [Games Played (2nd), Field Goals Made (2nd), Field Goals Attempted (2nd), Minutes Played (3rd), Points Scored (4th), Assists (10th), Free Throws Made (10th) and Free Throws Attempted (10th)].

Recently, Bingo Smith has been fighting some health problems. We want him to know that the Cleveland fans support him and wish him the best.
