NEW YORK (Ticker) -- Cleveland Cavaliers guard Mo Williams has
been named as an injury replacement for Toronto Raptors forward
Chris Bosh for this weekend's All-Star Game, the league
announced Tuesday.

It will be the first All-Star appearance for Williams, who had
been upset when he originally was left off the Eastern
Conference squad.

Williams has been a key cog for the East-leading Cavs (39-10),
averaging 17.1 points and 4.2 assists in 49 games.

Bosh, who was selected to his fourth straight All-Star Game,
will miss Sunday's contest with a sprained right knee. He has
not played since suffering the injury on Wednesday against the
Los Angeles Lakers.

Bosh is averaging 22.7 points and 9.5 rebounds in 51 games.
