Rockets' Lin out for Game 4

Houston Rockets guard Jeremy Lin was ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder due to a bruised chest injury, Yahoo! Sports reported.

Lin suffered the injury in the first half of Game 2, and was unable to start the second half because of it.

He played in Game 3, but was obviously limited by the injury and finished just 1-of-6 from the field with two points, one assist, and one turnover in 18 minutes of action.

Francisco Garcia is expected to start in Lin's place.

Lin started in all 82 regular season games, and averaged 13.4 points and 6.1 assists.
