Jeremy Lin[1] (traditional Chinese: 林書豪; simplified Chinese: 林书豪; pinyin: Lín Shūháo; born August 23, 1988) is an American professional basketball player with the New York Knicks of the National Basketball Association (NBA). After receiving no athletic scholarship offers out of high school and being undrafted out of college, the Harvard University graduate reached a partially guaranteed contract deal with his hometown Golden State Warriors. Lin is one of the few Asian Americans in NBA history, and the first American player in the league to be of Chinese or of Taiwanese descent.[2]
