For the second time in his career, former Golden State Warriors guard Jeremy Lin is a basketball champion.
Lin clinched the second title of his career — he won an NBA title in 2019 with the Toronto Raptors — on Thursday when the New Taipei Kings defeated the Taoyuan Pauian Pilots in five games, 4-1, to win Taiwan’s Plus League championship. The Kings beat the Pilots, 103-97, in an overtime thriller. Lin, who signed with the Taiwanese league team ahead of the season, scored 15 points, grabbed seven rebounds and got two steals coming off the bench.
