Jeremy Lin became an overnight sensation in 2012 for his performance with the NY Knicks, widely known as “Linsanity”. His story of how he “came from nothing to greatness… is giving hope to all those kids that think, ‘Never could I have a chance.’” Despite his astounding success, Jeremy did not have an easy start getting into the NBA. He was not drafted. He was waived by numerous teams because he did not look the part. As one of the commentators at a game stated about Lin, “Nobody thought he could play. He had to fight for everything that he got.” Jeremy’s belief is that, “you don’t get better if you win all the time. You get better when you lose. You look at yourself more when you lose.” And his career and attitude toward life shows the spirit of the fighter in him.
