Reserve guard Jeremy Lin saw heavy action, 35 minutes, in Game 5 and produced a full stat line. He scored 11 points, grabbed six rebounds, and dished out seven assists as the Hornets won in the waning seconds.
Fantasy Impact
Lin has stepped forward with Nicolas Batum injured as he has averaged over 16 points per game the last three contests. With Batum returning in Game 5 and likely to play on Friday, expect Lin's numbers to take a dip the remainder of the series.
