Cavs' Williams to sit out vs. Olympiacos with groin strain


Posted Oct 12 2009 6:42PM

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Mo Williams, Jamario Moon and Danny Green will not play in the Cleveland Cavaliers' exhibition game against Olympiacos on Monday night.

Williams has a groin strain, although coach Mike Brown said it isn't serious. Green has a right glute contusion and Moon had two wisdom teeth extracted last week.

Brown said Williams could easily play, but he may hold him out of Wednesday's exhibition game against Washington. Daniel Gibson was expected to start at point guard in place of Williams.
