Coming off a tough battle with the Bulls, the Pacers are in Cleveland for a bout against another division rival in the Cavaliers tonight. Indiana has won five of its last six meetups with Cleveland, dropping the lone matchup this season.
But, tonight has been all about Indiana’s defense so far. The Blue & Gold limited Cleveland to 12-of-47 (25.5 percent) shooting to earn a 47-36 halftime lead. The 36 points allowed are the fewest scored by a Pacers’ opponent in the first half this season.
On offense, Justin Holiday and Chris Duarte have provided seven points apiece.
