Ellington will move into the starting lineup Thursday against the Cavaliers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Analysis:

The Nets have not announced an official starting lineup, but Sergey Karasev will presumably shift to the bench with Ellington moving into the backcourt at shooting guard. Ellington missed three games prior to Tuesday's win over Orlando due to an illness, but he returned Tuesday to score 12 points in 25 minutes.
