Charlotte Hornets: Jeremy Lin Video ‘How To Fit In The NBA’
If you haven’t figured it out already, new Charlotte Hornets point guard Jeremy Lin has a great sense of humor. Whether he’s being denied entry into his own workplace, dressing up like a fake trainer or getting those around the NBA to help him out with a hilarious “How to Fit in the NBA” video, he’s always entertaining.
Check out the video below, where Jeremy enlists Wesley Johnson, Landry Fields, Jerome Jordan, DeAndre Jordan, Tyson Chandler, Kyle Korver, Dwight Howard, Stephen Curry, Kemba Walker and Jason Rivera to help him fit in the NBA.
The 6-foot-3 Lin signed a two-year, $4 million free-agent deal with the Hornets after playing for the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2014-15 season. In his five professional seasons, Lin has played for the Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks, Houston Rockets, Lakers and now the Hornets, with averages of 11.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game.
Lin was born in Palo Alto, California and attended Harvard University, where he played four seasons. He went undrafted in the 2010 NBA Draft, but signed on as a free agent with the Warriors and eventually made his way to the D-League.
While he’s still best known for his “Linsanity” days in New York, Lin has blossomed into one of the league’s better point guards, despite being saddled with some ill-fitting organizations.
Jeremy is expected to play the backup point guard role to Walker, though coach Steve Clifford has mentioned the potential of putting Lin and Walker on the court at the same time.
