Overview
- The local FanDuel Sports Network Cleveland broadcast went dark with exactly two minutes left, and viewers never saw the finish live.
- The final visible play was Craig Porter Jr.’s chasedown block on Andrew Nembhard that preserved a six-point Cavaliers lead.
- After a technical-difficulties screen, audio eventually returned but was muffled, and the postgame show was canceled.
- The Cavaliers beat the Pacers 120–116, powered by Darius Garland’s 14 fourth-quarter points and a near triple-double line from Porter.
- The outage fueled angry reactions from paying customers on social media and came after reporting that parent Main Street Sports Group missed payments to multiple NBA teams, with continued broadcasts expected but backup plans discussed.
