Cavaliers' Richard Jefferson: Expects to start Tuesday

Jefferson will move into the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal reports

Analysis:

Kevin Love is dealing with a left knee injury and has been ruled out for Tuesday, so coach Tyronn Lue said he'll promote Jefferson into the starting five. Jefferson hasn't been particularly effective when he's received extended minutes, so owners may want to temper expectations for the 36-year-old veteran. He'll likely split the extra minutes made available with Channing Frye.
