The visitors appeared to be in control of the game after opening up a 16-point lead early in the second half, but the Wizards found their way back into contention as they tried to keep the series alive.

David West had led the Pacers to their advantage, but the home side's comeback was complete with just over eight minutes to go when a three-pointer from Bradley Beal put Washington ahead.

However, the East's top seeds were able to up their game for the closing stages with a 20-6 run to regain their lead and seal the victory.

The Pacers will face the Miami Heat for a place in the NBA Finals.
