INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill is still listed as questionable for Sunday night's Game 4 against Indiana because of an injured back.
Hill aggravated the injury in Friday's 92-90 loss. The three-time defending Eastern Conference champs trail the Pacers 2-1.
Coach Tyronn Lue says veteran Jose Calderon will start if Hill doesn't.
Calderon scored five points in 13½ minutes in the Cavs' Game 2 victory but did not play in Game 3.
Tristan Thompson also is expected to see more playing time in Game 4 after playing a total of 1 minute, 59 seconds in the first three games — all in the Cavs' 18-point Game 1 loss.
Thompson, Lue says, will add toughness and rebounding to the lineup.
