Cavaliers vs Pacers Tuesday: Lineups, Injury Reports & Broadcast Info

Darius Garland and the Cleveland Cavaliers (37-27) will take on Malcolm Brogdon and the Indiana Pacers (22-44) during the NBA Tuesday slate.

Injuries have become a significant issue for the Cavaliers this season. First, Collin Sexton had suffered a season-ending ACL tear followed by Ricky Rubio (no longer with team) experiencing one of his own.

Jarrett Allen is sidelined indefinitely with a broken thumb while Caris LeVert also continued to be out of the lineup. Darius Garland and Evan Mobley are the main starters still available that consistently make a big impact.

It has been a tough season for the Indiana Pacers, who ultimately opted to undergo the rebuilding process by making moves at the NBA trade deadline to part with some veteran players like Caris LeVert and Domantas Sabonis.
