Cavaliers guard Mo Williams is out after re-injuring his hip five minutes into Saturday’s loss at Denver. Williams told reporters that he will likely be out “for a while.” He will be replaced in the starting lineup by Ramon Sessions.
Sessions will start alongside Manny Harris in the backcourt, while Alonzo Gee, Antawn Jamison and J.J. Hickson will start up front. Also, guard Daniel Gibson will return after missing the previous five games with an ankle sprain. Cavs coach Byron Scott said he expects Gibson to come off the bench and play about 30 minutes.
The Suns have no injuries and will start Channing Frye, Robin Lopez and Grant Hill up front, and Steve Nash and Vince Carter in the backcourt.
The Suns have won three straight, and may be starting to come together after last month’s trade that brought Carter, Mickael Pietrus and Marcin Gortat. “Well, I am hoping that’s the case,” said coach Alvin Gentry. “Chemistry is the same thing, but you always know when you don’t have it. … We may be starting to find it now.”
