Game 7 between the Cavaliers and Warriors has drawn the highest television rating for the NBA Finals since Michael Jordan’s last championship.

Cleveland’s tense 93-89 win Sunday night to capture the city’s first title in more than a half-century averaged a 15.7 rating and nearly 30.8 million viewers on ABC. ESPN said Monday that both numbers are the best since Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals, when Jordan’s Bulls clinched their sixth ring.
