Cavaliers' Iman Shumpert: Will come off bench Wednesday

Shumpert will come off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com reports.

Analysis:

Coach Tyronn Lue originally said on Tuesday that Shumpert would start, but has since changed his mind and will start Mike Dunleavy at small forward. He'll likely split minutes at the position with both Dunleavy and Richard Jefferson, but given Shumpert's ability to play in the backcourt as well, he should still see close to 30 minutes Wednesday for an undermanned Cleveland team.
