Iman Shumpert is starting at point guard Monday, as expected.

Coach Mike D'Antoni says Toney Douglas (shoulder) is 100 percent, but it doesn't matter. Shumpert is more effective as a defender and playmaker right now. In four career NBA games, the highly-athletic Shumpert is averaging 12.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.5 3-pointers.
