Bennedict Mathurin suspension comes after inappropriate contact and verbal abuse toward a game official near the end of Indiana's Tuesday loss.

The Cleveland Cavaliers bounced back from their first loss in more than a month by beating the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday night, 127-117. It was an especially sweet win since the Pacers were the team to snap the Cavaliers' winning streak two nights earlier.

Moments before the Indiana Pacers (22-19) saw their six-game winning streak come to an end versus the Cleveland Cavaliers (34-5), Bennedict Mathurin was ejected. The valuable wing clearly fouled big man Evan Mobley in the fourth quarter but ardently protested the call to official Natalie Sago.
