Raymond Felton was originally reported to be coming off the bench in Monday's matchup with the Thunder, but he did indeed start, Erik Horne of The Oklahoman reports.

Updating a previous report, Felton who was originally reported to be coming off the bench for Monday's Game 5 matchup, ended up making the start at point guard, Erik Horne of The Oklahoman reports.

Analysis:

It was surprising to originally hear Felton would be sitting, given his solid play throughout the series. Coach Rick Carlisle must have felt the same way, as Felton will now get the nod at point guard while J.J. Barea, who has been battling a groin issue throughout the series, comes off the bench.
