Nets' Jeremy Lin: Double-doubles in loss Monday
Lin scored 26 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 16-17 FT) with 12 rebounds, four assists and one block across 34 minutes in Monday's 114-105 loss to the Celtics.
Analysis:
Lin recorded season-highs in free throws made and rebounds to secure his third double-double of the year and his first in almost three-and-a-half months. The Harvard product led the Nets in both scoring and rebounds, but his efforts weren't enough to fight back a Celtics team that's still fighting for playoff positioning. Lin will look to keep up his high level of play when the Nets close out their season Wednesday against the Bulls.
