Mayo is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Suns, Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

With Giannis Antetokounmpo sitting out due to tendinitis in his knee, Mayo will move into the starting lineup in his place. Mayo is averaging 10.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists over 29 minutes per game this season and he could see those minutes increase with Antetokounmpo sidelined. Mayo's stint in the starting lineup will likely be short-lived, so expect him to return to the bench as soon as Antetokounmpo is healthy.
