Kings' Ty Lawson: Remains a starter

Lawson will remain the Kings' starting point guard for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, James Ham of CSN Bay Area reports.

Analysis:

With Darren Collison returning from an eight-game suspension Tuesday, it was widely believed Lawson would move back to a bench role. However, the Kings are going keep Lawson with the top unit for at least one more game, although his minutes are still set to take a major hit with Collison now available. It wouldn't be surprising if Collison ultimately outpaces him in minutes despite coming off the bench.
