Mavericks' Deron Williams: Will start Saturday vs. Magic
Williams (toe) will start at point guard Saturday against the Magic.
Analysis:
Though he was cleared to play earlier Saturday following an eight-game absence due to the sprained left toe, it wasn't known whether Williams would immediately reclaim a starting role. Even though it's since been announced that he'll slot in on the top unit, Williams could still face significant playing-time restrictions, so it wouldn't be surprising if rookie Yogi Ferrell, who will head back to the bench, still takes on the majority of the minutes at the position.
