Lin (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lin suffered a strained hamstring Monday against Charlotte, forcing him out of the game after scoring 17 points in 22 minutes. Initially, the Nets had hoped that Lin would be able to avoid missing time, but that will not be the case, and Brooklyn will now have to find a replacement at point guard. Isaiah Whitehead, who played 16 minutes off the bench Monday, is the most likely candidate to draw the start. Consider Lin questionable for Friday's matchup with the Wizards.
