Cavaliers' J.R. Smith: To remain in starting lineup

Smith will remain in the starting lineup for Wednesday's Game 3 against the Warriors, Michael Grange of SportsNet reports.

Following two blowouts to begin the series, some had speculated that the Cavs would go with Iman Shumpert at shooting guard in place of Smith, who has more fouls than made field goals in the series. Coach Tyronn Lue dispelled that rumor at shootaround Tuesday, stating that he'll stick with the usual backcourt of Smith and Kyrie Irving. Smith will still be under the microscope, however, and if he's lackluster play on both ends continues, Shumpert could step into a larger role off the bench.
