Cavaliers' Richard Jefferson: Starting again Monday

Jefferson will remain in the starting lineup Monday against the Bucks, Jason Lloyd of The Athletic reports.

Analysis:

The veteran started in place of an ill LeBron James on Saturday against Chicago, but he'll now replace Channing Frye at power forward, as the Cavs go with a smaller starting five. Per coach Tyronn Lue, the idea is for Frye to come off the bench to match up with Milwaukee's Greg Monroe, who's had at least 14 points and eight rebounds in four of his last five games. Given that contest, the move probably won't be permanent, and Frye will likely return to the starting lineup Wednesday in Boston.
