Steve Nash has retired from basketball, but he's not completely away from the game. He was at the Los Angeles Lakers' facility on Wednesday, and the future Hall of Famer is working out with soon-to-be free agent Jeremy Lin, via Lakers Nation's Serena Winters:
Working at the Lakers facility & a familiar face walked in - good 'ole Steve Nash! Said he had a workout planned w/ Jeremy Lin.

Nash and Lin both had their struggles in Los Angeles, the former with injuries and the latter with playing time under head coach Byron Scott. Nash worked out with Lakers rookie Jordan Clarkson a few times during the regular season after being ruled out for the season, but there weren't any similar sessions with Lin at the time. It's cool that the pair of point guards, both of whom did brilliant things in Mike D'Antoni's system, are now spending some time together -- this has to be helpful for Lin.
In related news, Lin recently wrote a blog about his off-season where he said he felt burnt out and drained after the season but has recaptured his energy after taking some time off.
