Mahinmi (knee) will get the start Saturday against the Pistons.

Analysis:

He still has some soreness, but Indiana needs him back against the Pistons front line, so they will see how he looks and figure out how many minutes to give him throughout the course of the game. Lavoy Allen will also get the start, meaning Paul George moves to the three and C.J. Miles moves to the bench.
