LeBron James made sure the Cleveland Cavaliers didn’t lose Game 5 against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday

James made a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Cavs a 98-95 victory.

It was his only made three-pointer of the game.

Moments earlier James made a defensive play that altered the game and the series.

James scored a game-high 44 points and gave Cleveland a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 first-round Eastern Conference series.

It was the 21st time James scored at least 40 points in a playoff game passing Jerry West for No. 2 all time, and it was the 101st time he scored at least 30 points in postseason, second most behind Michael Jordan (109).
