Nets' Jeremy Lin: Practicing Thursday

Lin (back) participated in practice Thursday, Barbara Barker of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

Lin sat out Wednesday's win over the Lakers after dealing with back tightness, but after a day of rest, Lin appears to have shown some improvement, as evidenced by his involvement in practice. While the Nets will still list Lin on their injury report, it appears the 29-year-old is on track to return during the team's three-game road trip, which begins Friday against the Magic. The team will likely still ease Lin back into a full workload, however, given that he returned to action in Monday's loss to the Rockets and played 20 minutes following a 17-game absence due to a strained hamstring.
