The Cleveland Cavaliers will be up against the Indiana Pacers in an NBA<\/a> Cup group stage game on November 21, at home, Rocket Arena. The hosts will head into the game on the back of a loss to the Houston Rockets. In their last NBA Cup game, the Cavaliers recorded a blowout win over the Washington Wizards. While they are 10-6 in the regular-season standings, their in-season tournament tally is split in 1-1. <\/p>

Facing them will be the Indiana Pacers, who finally ended their eight-game losing streak and recorded their second win of the season. The Pacers defeated the Charlotte Hornets in their most recent gameplay. However, talking about their campaign in the NBA Cup, the reigning NBA Finalists have only played one game so far, which turned into a loss. <\/p>

Both teams would aim to add victories to their NBA Cup tally, and while it is expected to be a lopsided game, the Pacers’ only two wins have come against stronger teams. Moreover, they will head into the game with confidence. <\/p>

Having said that, let’s have a look at injury updates and absentees for both teams.<\/p>
