Maggette returns to starting lineup for Bobcats
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Bobcats coach Paul Silas says Corey Maggette will return to the starting lineup for Saturday night's game against the Los Angeles Clippers in place of Tyrus Thomas.
Maggette, who missed 19 games with a strained left hamstring, played 14 minutes in Charlotte's blowout loss Friday night to Chicago, scoring four points in his first game back.
Thomas has been struggling to find his mark this season for the Bobcats, averaging 6.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game.
