After Jeremy Lin (Twitter: @JLin7) scored 38 points against Kobe Bryant and the Lakers recently, “Linsanity” has begun spreading across social media platforms. After his first week starting for the NBA, Lin managed to become the first player in NBA history to put up numbers of at least 20 points and seven assists in each of his first four starting games.
Lin also made history in his first week starting for an NBA team as the second highest scoring player in league history over a period of four game starts. However, the guard’s accolades have surprised many, since multiple teams waived Lin from their rosters and he was playing in the NBA D-league only a few weeks ago.
Despite the Linsanity, the Knicks’ newest point guard insists that he is only trying to glorify God with his skills on the court.
“I’m thinking about how can I trust God more. How can I surrender more? How can I bring him more glory,” Lin said in a Mercury News report. “It’s a fight. But it’s one I’m going to keep fighting.”
