The number one seed in the Eastern Conference trails 2-0 in their series against the Pacers following Tyrese Haliburton's late-game heroics with a three-pointer that went in with just over one second remaining in regulation.

Haliburton finished the night with 19 points, but his dagger three-pointer now means the Pacers have a commanding lead in the series as it shifts back to Indiana with his team already up 2-0 against the 64-win Cavaliers.

Cleveland was missing a handful of stars Tuesday night, including Evan Mobley, Darius Garland and DeAndre Hunter, but the Cavs still had a strong chance to pull out a victory after holding a 14-point lead heading into the fourth quarter and blew a seven-point advantage with less than a minute remaining.
