adminA tearful Jeremy Lin said he has hit rock bottom as he struggles to catch on with a team in free agency after winning an NBA championship with the Toronto Raptors.
The 30-year-old guard, who shot to fame in 2011-12 when his inspired play for the New York Knicks triggered the short-lived “Linsanity” era for the long-struggling Atlantic Division team, has played for eight teams in the nine NBA seasons.
He started the 2018-19 season with the Atlanta Hawks, was bought out in mid-season, then joined the Toronto Raptors where, as a reserve, he became the first Asian-American player to win an NBA title.
Lin became a free agent in June but has yet to sign with a new team. Speaking to a Christian group in Taipei, Taiwan, an emotional Lin admitted he faces an uncertain future. — Skysports.
