Danny Granger snapped out of his shooting funk with 30 points and the Indiana Pacers broke a three-game losing streak with a 108-99 victory at home over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.

Granger, battling an ankle injury, shot below 50 percent in each of his last four games. But he’s made a career out of torturing the Cavs and did it again Friday by shooting 12 of 22 from the floor and grabbing 12 rebounds. Roy Hibbert and Mike Dunleavy each added 15 points for the Pacers.

Mo Williams had 22 points and 11 assists for the Cavs, who lost their 10th straight and 11th in a row on the road. The Cavs haven’t won away from home since Nov. 9.

The Pacers took control by scoring 65 points in the second and third quarters combined. They carried a 10-point lead into the fourth quarter and were never really threatened. That doesn’t mean they were thrilled with how the night went.

The Pacers were whistled for four technicals in the fourth quarter, including a pair for Solomon Jones within 20 seconds of each other that earned him an ejection. Coach Jim O’Brien and Roy Hibbert also earned technicals in the fourth for the Pacers
