Nets' Jeremy Lin: Will come off bench Friday

Lin (back) will play, but come off the bench in Friday's game against the Magic, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Analysis:

in should be good to go after putting together a full practice Thursday, but he likely won't be playing a full load of minutes. He played just 20 off the bench in his return to the floor Monday, and it's likely Lin sees a similar dose Friday. Rookie Isaiah Whitehead will start at point guard for Brooklyn once again.
