Game 4 of this Eastern Conference series between the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers and fourth-seeded Indiana Pacers will take place on Sunday in Indiana. Let’s take a look at the match statistics and predictions to see if the Pacers can bounce back and take a commanding lead in the series or if the Cavaliers can even this series up.

Indiana enters this game with a 2-1 series lead after losing Game 3 by a score of 126-104. The Pacers started this game slowly, falling behind 11-0 in the first three minutes before rallying to end the first quarter tied 32-32. Unfortunately, the Pacers could not keep this momentum going in the second quarter as they were outscored 32-13, which effectively sealed the game. Indiana had a total of four players score at least 10 or more points, and Bennedict Mathurin led the team in scoring with 23 points. However, the Pacers shot just 9 of 30 from the three-point line and could not keep up.

As for Cleveland, they look to have renewed energy after their Game 3 win. The Cavaliers also  appear to be fully healthy now after missing some key players in the first two games of the series. All five of Cleveland’s starters scored 10 points or more in Game 3 and they were led by Donovan Mitchell, who scored a game-high 43 points.
