Pacers lose 129-120. No playoffs yet for Indiana. Haliburton with 19 points and 12 assists, Siakam with 19 points, but no consistency on defense for the Pacers. Cavs shot 40% from deep and had 64 points in the paint.

Pacers play Atlanta Sunday for a playoff berth.

Nasty stepback 3 from Darius Garland with 50 seconds to go. Pacers let that one happen after not grabbing a rebound.

Turner misses a 3 that would have given the Pacers the lead. It's 120-118 Cavs with 1:12 to go, Cleveland ball after this timeout.

3-point lead remains going into the fourth quarter. It's 97-94. Pacers looked better in the third but still have work to do.

Pacers had it down to 6 and the ball before that turnover. Caris LeVert draws a foul on the other end and will head to the line for 2.

Pacers got it down to 7 earlier in this quarter, but it's still a 10-point Cavs lead with 6:31 to go in the third quarter. Not enough stops for Indiana all night, with Donovan Mitchell being too much.

Caris LeVert a three just before halftime. It's 70-59 Cavs at the break. Cleveland has 44 points in the paint AND is shooting 50% from deep. Crushing combo. Pacers have to defend way better.

18 for Donovan Mitchell. 11 for both Siakam and Turner.

Pacers won't win if they take the ball out of the net all night. 60 points for the Cavs, who lead by 13, with 3:42 to go in the first half.

Double techs for Niang and McConnell. Clearly something was building there, refs get involved during the timeout.
