Lakers' Nick Young: Will start at shooting guard Wednesday

Young will start at shooting guard for Wednesday's game against the Rockets, Mark Medina of Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Over the last two games, Young has ceded starting duties to David Nwaba. However, Nwaba has really struggled to be an asset with the starting five, so coach Luke Walton will turn back to Young as the team's top shooting guard. Young should see the bulk of the minutes at the position Wednesday, but considering the Lakers are in full tank mode, it wouldn't be surprising if they attempted to get their younger players more minutes as the last month of the season winds down.
