"Linsanity" runs wild in first-ever Manila game
Playing his first game in Manila, Jeremy Lin showcased some of the "Linsanity" that took over the NBA a decade ago, scoring 16 of his game-high 23 points in the second half to lead the New Taipei Kings to a victory over the Meralco Bolts in Season 2 of the East Asia Super League.
Jeremy, who signed with New Taipei in the previous P.LEAGUE+ offseason to partner with his brother Joseph, has the Kings up 3-0 in the Group B standings, with two wins at the expense of the Bolts.
