Pascal Siakam paced the Pacers with 21 points, while Myles Turner and Obi Toppin added 20 each in a balanced attack that overwhelmed Cleveland from the jump.
Darius Garland led the Cavaliers with 21 points, but the night took a grim turn for Cleveland as star guard Donovan Mitchell was held to just 12 points and suffered an ankle injury.
Indiana will now head back to Cleveland with a chance to close out the series in Game 5.
