Jeremy Lin has claimed that he expects to return to the court for the Houston Rockets on Monday following a spell on the sidelines due to back spasms.
The 25-year-old has missed the last four games, but he stepped up his recovery over the weekend and could play some part against the Dallas Mavericks.
"Hopefully, I'll be back Monday if there are no setbacks," Lin revealed to reporters.
"Just to get back in shape after having to sit, not do anything for a while, not even really being able to sit, let alone jog or run, it's good to sweat again and get your body going."
Lin is averaging 14.3 points for Houston this season.
