Originally posted on Fastbreak on SI | By Ben Stinar | Last updated May 6, 2025 2:00 AM ET

On Tuesday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers will host the Indiana Pacers for Game 2 of their second-round playoff series.

For the game, the Cavs could be without one of their best players, as 2025 Defensive Player of The Year Evan Mobley is on the injury report.

Via Evan Dammarell of Right Down Euclid: "The #Cavs say that De'Andre Hunter (right thumb sprain), Evan Mobley (left ankle sprain), and Darius Garland (left great toe sprain) are all questionable for tomorrow's Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers, and all three will likely be game-time decisions."

However, the Cavs lost by a score of 121-112.
