Nets' Spencer Dinwiddie: Heads back to bench Thursday

Dinwiddie will resume his usual role off the bench for Thursday's tilt against the Suns.

Analysis:

With Jeremy Lin (ankle) healthy and returning to the starting five, Dinwiddie will be bumped back to the pine. He dropped 10 points, eight rebounds, four assists, and two blocks across 30 minutes during Tuesday's start. Despite coming off the bench, Dinwiddie has still averaged 7.3 points, 3.9 assists, and 3.0 rebounds across 25.6 minutes per game since the All-Star break, making him an option in deeper leagues.
