The Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers are set to start their second-round playoff series this Sunday. The Cavs are coming off a dominant sweep of the Miami Heat, while the Pacers handled the hobbled Milwaukee Bucks in just five games.

In the aftermath of the Cavs' four-game sweep over Miami, a Heat player was asked what changed in the final two games, both blowouts. He pointed to Darius Garland's absence.

Darius Garland remains day-to-day with a big toe sprain and is questionable for Game 1 against the Pacers. Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson has repeatedly noted how difficult that specific injury can be for a basketball player, so Garland's status is still up in the air.
