If we had to guess what direction Jeremy Lin’s career would go after his stint with the Knicks, we would’ve been wrong. Lin seemed to be soaring higher in his career, and his hair appeared relatively normal. Both his playing and hair careers would take a completely different turn.
After his thrilling season in New York, Lin went on to play brief stints with the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, and the Charlotte Hornets. The “Linsanity” hysteria died down and Lin’s short time with the Rockets and Lakers were disappointing. It wasn’t until last season with the Hornets that Lin brought his reputation back up, establishing himself as an effective role player.
