Marvin Williams won't start for the Hawks against the Cavaliers in Game 1 on Tuesday night, but he will play significant minutes.

Williams only appeared in three of Atlanta's seven games against Miami in the first round.

"We struggled to score some (against Miami), and there was 14 points sitting on the sidelines," Hawks coach Mike Woodson told the Associated Press on Monday. "He told me today after practice that he's ready to go. We need him."

Williams suffered a sprained wrist in Atlanta's Game 2 loss to Miami, and didn't return until Game 6.
