Jack will start Saturday's game against the Rockets alongside Kyrie Irving, the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Jack was presumably brought to Cleveland because of his ability to play next to other point guards. He's averaging a reasonable 26.2 minutes per game, but has almost exclusively been used off the bench, as Saturday's start will only be his third of the season. It's unclear what kind of impact the swap will have on his playing time, but it probably can't be a bad thing, and this development doesn't look like great news for either C.J. Miles or Dion Waiters.
