Green will draw the start Monday versus the the Pacers, Ethan J. Skolnick of the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis:

Green started the last two games for Miami due to Dwyane Wade sitting out, So many expected him to return to a reserve role in Wades return. However, the Heat will bring Justice Winslow off the bench and start Green at the small forward position instead. In his two previous starts Green posted 9.5 points, 3.5 boards, 1.0 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 triples per game. It is unclear if the decision to keep Green in the starting lineup is merely matchup related and temporary, or something the Heat would consider moving forward.
