Mozgov will come off the bench Monday versus the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of WCCO 830 AM reports.

Analysis:

Mozgov has started the previous five games for Cleveland, but they have opted to go with Tristan Thompson in the starting lineup Monday. It has been rumored that Mozgov is on the trading block, but it is unclear if that has anything to do with the lineup switch. The center position will continue to be monitored going forward as new head coach Tryonn Lue toys with the lineup.
