Homeless Lin

Lin's potential contract worth about $800,000 was not guaranteed until last week, so for the past six weeks, Lin had been crashing on his brother's couch in the Lower East Side. The night before his breakout game, Lin slept on teammate Landry Fields' sofa. Fields' recently posted a picture of the couch on his twitter account and since then, the photo has been re-tweeted over 2,000 times.
