CLEVELAND — The Cavaliers will be without point guard Mo Williams for four-to-six weeks due to a sprained left shoulder.

Williams suffered the injury Tuesday against Toronto, but returned to action.

The All-Star point guard was examined by Cavaliers head team physician Dr. Richard Parker and the Cleveland Clinic’s Dr. Mark Schickendantz. He also underwent an MRI at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health.

The Cavaliers planned on starting Delonte West in place of Williams on Thursday night against the defending NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers.
