Shelvin Mack expected to start in Game 2 for Utah

Utah Jazz point guard Shelvin Mack is expected to start at point guard in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinal series with the Golden State Warriors on Thursday.

What It Means:

George Hill is not playing due to an injured toe, giving Mack the chance to start. Dante Exum and Raul Neto will likely see an uptick in minutes as well. Mack played an average of just 8.2 minutes per game during the first-round series with the Los Angeles Clippers.

Mack played 21 minutes in Game 1, scoring six points with seven rebounds, four assists and one steal while shooting 2-for-7 from the floor.
