In Saturday night NBA action, the Cleveland Cavaliers will travel to Bankers Life Fieldhouse to face the Indiana Pacers. This will be the second of a back-to-back on the road for the Cavaliers, who lost against Washington by a 119-106 final score last night. Cleveland was outscored by seven points in the fourth quarter and shot just 38 percent overall.

Rookie G Collin Sexton tallied a team high 27 points on a 10-for-18 shooting effort. Larry Nance Jr. added ten points and 19 rebounds in a losing effort for the Cavaliers. The Indiana Pacers have won four straight games and have managed to stay near the top of the Eastern Conference standings despite losing G Victor Oladipo (knee) for the season. On Thursday, Indiana built a 17-point halftime lead and cruised to a 116-92 home victory versus Los Angeles. The Pacers forced 21 turnovers by the Clippers and shot 56 percent from the field.

Bojan Bogdanovic led all scorers with 29 points on 12-for-19 shooting and grabbed seven rebounds. Myles Turner chipped in 17 points and four steals for the Pacers.

Indiana F Doug McDermott (ribs) did not play on Thursday and is listed as doubtful for this matchup. The Pacers rank second in defensive efficiency and will smother a Cleveland squad that ranks 24th in offensive efficiency. Take the under on Saturday. Final Score Prediction, Indiana Pacers win but we like the under play 107-93.
