Magic welcome Nelson back to the lineup
Orlando, FL (Sports Network) - Orlando Magic guard Jameer Nelson will make his return from knee surgery Monday against the Utah Jazz.
Nelson hasn't played since he tore the meniscus in his left knee on November 16 in a win against Charlotte. He underwent an arthroscopic procedure two days later and missed the next 16 games.
In 11 starts this year, Nelson is averaging 13.7 points, 5.5 assists and 3.1 rebounds per contest. The Saint Joseph's product also missed the majority of the second half of last season with a shoulder injury.
