Lou Williams and Pero Antic will be in the starting lineup for the Atlanta Hawks in today's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Antic returns to the lineup after sitting out Sunday's loss in Memphis due to back spasms. Williams will start at shooting guard due with Kyle Korver sliding to the small forward spot due to DeMarre Carroll's absence. Carroll is not with the team in London due to the birth of his daughter.

Williams has started three games for the Hawks this season and is averaging 13.1 points in those contests. Atlanta has gone 1-2 in those three games with Williams as the starter.
