Jeremy Lin (BKN) – “Linsanity” 
Profile:
Point Guard: 6’3, 200 lbs; 8th year, Harvard
NBA Role: scoring point guard • Star UnderDOG
Hello Brooklyn!; a former league-wide sensation, Jeremy broke onto the scene w/ NY during the ’11-’12 season and never looked back; fast forward to 2017-18: Jeremy’s ‘Linsane’ games aren’t as frequent but he’s created an identity as an ‘attack-mode’ PG; if you sag off, Lin will knock down threes from the top of the key, utilizing his improved shot base (more consistent elbow mechanics, steadier motion); if you play too closely, Lin will find a rolling teammate or drive hard to the basket*; patient, probing guard – Lin’s settled down in recent years, learning to pick the right angles to exploit; not much of a defender, to put it nicely; shoots a bit too much, can he share the rock better under coach Kenny Atkinson?; Jeremy has a ‘Linsanity’ flashback (scores in bunches) only every now and again but there’s no doubting him as one of the league’s most dependable PGs; is Lin a placeholder or permanent starter in BKN?
*The result? He’ll either get fouled or convert a tough bucket with his right:
