Intrigue, suspicion and confusion consumed the Knicks’ agenda on Saturday, which ended with a single, anxious question for fans: Whither Jeremy Lin?

The answer, as of midnight, was anything but clear.

In a surprise move, the Knicks struck a deal to reacquire Raymond Felton, the veteran point guard, sparking immediate, furious speculation that the franchise was ready to let Lin leave for Houston.

While fans were bemoaning Lin’s possible departure on Twitter and on blogs, no one associated with the Knicks or with Lin would confirm anything late Saturday night. Speculation and anxiety ruled the evening.

Lin, a restricted free agent, signed a three-year, $25 million offer sheet with the Rockets on Friday. The paperwork was delivered to the Knicks on Saturday, starting a three-day clock for the Knicks to either match the offer or let Lin go.
