Sorry if this has been posted. But dude is a Taiwanese American senior at Harvard University from Palo Alto and is the best player in the Ivy League. I haven't noticed anyone talking about this dude on this board. He's a great basketball player and averages 17pts, 5asts,5,rebs, 1blk and 2.5 stls a game.

I'm proud of this guy. Setting precedent for other Asian American ballers.





Highlights of him dropping 30 on UCONN

Not a jinx but he'd probably go pro to the NBA. Does anybody know if the PBA recruits playerz from college by having tryoutz, or is he simply a recruit these days being "exemplary"

I doubt he'll go to the NBA. He could probably play professional somewhere, but not America. Then again, he also might get a great job having a econ degree from Harvard.

He is a good player, but I don't think he'll play in the NBA. Probably have a chance in the D-league if he wants.

Very quick and fast. Not the best decisions, but he plays like a traditional guard. Pass first type.

Not NBA status, but can play in the D-League for sure. I see him getting burned a lot if he goes against other guards in the NBA.

Why are you tired of Yao? Can't wait till he comes back.



Lin will be 55 - 60th pick IF any pick at all. I wish him luck!
