Dunleavy will start at shooting guard for Sunday's matchup with the Hornets, Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

J.R. Smith suffered an ankle injury during Friday's matchup with Wizards and is now slated to sit out Sunday, which gives Dunleavy the chance to run with the top overall unit. Dunleavy has averaged just 16.1 minutes so far this season, but should get the chance for extended minutes Sunday with Smith out of the lineup. Iman Shumpert is also slated to see an increased role Sunday, so that could limit the additional production from Dunleavy.
