Cavs' Mo Williams returns from 3-game absence

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Mo Williams will return to the lineup Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors, Chris Haynes of Cleveland.com reports.

Williams missed the last two games due to an ankle issue. He also missed the game before that with a sore leg.

The 32-year-old Williams has supplied the Cavaliers with some much-needed depth in the wake of injuries to Iman Shumpert and Kyrie Irving.

Now on his second tour of duty in Cleveland, Williams is averaging 15.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per game on a robust true shooting percentage of 59.2.

Williams' return to the lineup will likely bump Matthew Dellavedova back to the bench, although his status is questionable as he's battling a calf injury.
