Lin became an NBA sensation back in 2012 during the “Linsanity” and he was widely known as an unlikely hero of the New York Knicks, Business Insider reported.
After his stint with the Knicks, Lin went on to play for other teams such as the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, Charlotte Hornets, Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks before joining the Raptors in February. Coming off of two years being injured, his season with the Atlanta and the end of his season with the Raptors were his most recent healthy seasons.
