Description

The Cleveland Cavaliers host the Indiana Pacers at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. After a 121–112 loss in Game 1, the Cavaliers aim to even the series. However, they face significant challenges due to injuries: Darius Garland (toe), Evan Mobley (ankle), and De'Andre Hunter (thumb) are all sidelined. Donovan Mitchell, who scored 33 points in the opener, will need support from players like Dean Wade and Isaac Okoro to counter the Pacers' balanced offense. Indiana, led by Tyrese Haliburton's 22 points and 13 assists in Game 1, looks to capitalize on their momentum and the Cavaliers' depleted roster. The Pacers will focus on exploiting Cleveland's defensive vulnerabilities, particularly in perimeter defense and pick-and-roll coverage.
