NEW YORK (AP) — Jeremy Lin's injury-plagued stint in Brooklyn is over.

The Nets have agreed to trade Lin to the Atlanta Hawks, a person with knowledge of the deal said early Friday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the trade had not been announced.

The move helps clear up the Nets' logjam at point guard and sends Lin to another team that is also pretty crowded at the position.
