Darius Garland sat out Game 1 for the Cavs, and Evan Mobley and key bench player De'Andre Hunter got banged up in the opener against the Pacers.

The Cavaliers find themselves needing to bounce back Tuesday night in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Indiana Pacers, and their challenge is turning into an uphill climb. Darius Garland has been out with a toe injury and his status is uncertain for Game 2.

Already missing Garland due to a toe injury, Cleveland was battered and bruised by Indiana on Sunday. Hunter dislocated his thumb after falling on a dunk attempt, while Mobley tweaked his ankle by landing on Myles Turner's foot following a jump shot.
