Pacers Knock Off Cavs In Cleveland

Last updated on Thursday, November 2, 2017

(CLEVELAND, OH) - The Indiana Pacers scored at least 30 points in all four quarters of Wednesday night’s game as they knocked off the Cleveland Cavaliers 124-107.

Thaddeus Young led the Pacers with 26 points while Darren Collison wasn't far behind with 25 points and eight assists and Victor Oladipo overcame a slow start to finish with 23.

Indiana shot over 54 percent from the field and a blistering 61.5 percent from 3-point range, hitting 16 treys.

"It's a big win for this young team," Pacers coach Nate McMillan said after the game. "We knew Cleveland would come out with a sense of urgency after losing their last three."

LeBron James led the Cavaliers with a game-high 33 points and 11 assists but Cleveland lost their fourth straight game.

Lance Stephenson was assessed a flagrant one foul in the second quarter after hitting James in the groin area as he drove to the basket.

The Pacers are riding a three-game win streak and will try to make it four in a row when they visit the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday.
