Nets' Jeremy Lin: Hands out seven dimes in return to lineup

Lin (hamstring) scored 10 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-4 FT) and added seven assists, three rebounds, one steal, and one block across 20 minutes during the Nets' 122-118 loss to the Rockets on Monday.

Analysis:

Making his return to the lineup following a 17-game absence due to a strained left hamstring, Lin played well off the bench, managing a team-high seven assists while committing just one turnover. Though the 28-year-old guard is being eased back into the mix, Nets' coach Kenny Atkinson kept Lin on the court during crunch time, and it likely won't be long before he rejoins the starting five.
