LeBron James secures Cavaliers victory with late clutch plays on both ends
Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James scored 44 points with 10 rebounds and 8 assists in Wednesday's 98-95 victory over the Indiana Pacers.
James single-handedly won this game in the final seconds. He started off by blocking Victor Oladipo's potential game-winning layup with just three seconds left to keep the game tied, and ended the game by nailing a three-point shot of his own as time expired.
numberFire's models projected James to score 58.9 FanDuel points and he topped that with 69.0.
John Wall comes up just shy of triple-double in Wizards' loss

Wall toed the line of his first triple-double of this series, while playing 44 minutes on Wednesday. He also blocked 3 shots, but did turn the ball over 7 times and put up a goose egg from downtown for the fourth-straight game, as the Wizards made just 5-of-26 three pointers as a team.
numberFire's models projected Wall to score 48.7 FanDuel points and he popped off for 55.3.
Jose Calderon starting again for Cavaliers in Game 5 with George Hill out
Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Jose Calderon will start Wednesday's game versus the Indiana Pacers.
Calderon draws his second-straight start of this series after not playing in Game 3. With George Hill out again, Calderon will likely see similar usage to that of Game 4, in which he played 19 minutes.
numberFire's models project Calderon to score 13.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500.
George Hill will miss Game 5 for Cavaliers on Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill will not play in Game 5 against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday.
Hill missed Game 4 of the series, a game in which Cleveland tied things up at 2-2. Jose Calderon will start in his place on Wednesday.
Hill has averaged 8.7 points and 1.7 assists in three playoff games so far.
Fred VanVleet (shoulder) out again for Raptors on Wednesday
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (shoulder) will not play against the Washington Wizards in Game 5 on Wednesday.
VanVleet injured his shoulder in Game 2 and hasn't played since. Delon Wright will continue to see extended minutes for Toronto as they look to go up 3-2 over the Wizards tonight at home.
VanVleet averaged 18.5 FanDuel points per game for the Raptors in the regular season.
Tyus Jones (knee) heading towards game-time decision for Timberwolves in Game 5
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Tyus Jones (right knee soreness) particpated in shootaround and will "hopefully" be available to play against the Houston Rockets in Game 5 on Wednesday night, head coach Tom Thibodeau said.
"I think he’s feeling better," Thibodeau said after the morning shootaround. "He will go through warmup tonight. Hopefully, he’ll be available." Jones only played seven minutes in Game 3 and was ruled out for Game 4 on Monday. Another absence would mean more minutes for Derrick Rose again.
In the event he plays, numberFire's models project Jones to play only 8.2 minutes while scoring 6.7 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500 in Game 5.
