A ruptured patella tendon is a serious injury that requires serious recovery and rehabilitation regimes. Jeremy Lin’s injury was always seen as one that would deprive him of a full season ... and require a summer of slow, methodical work.
So, no real surprise that Lin is still not yet ready for training camp or that he feels he has things to address. He spoke to beat writers in Las Vegas about all this while cheering on the Nets Summer League team.
While Sean Marks said Friday that Lin had been cleared for contact six weeks ago, Lin noted that doesn’t mean full five-on-five contract drills.
