The 36-year-old has continued his career overseas (in China and Taiwan).
On Sunday, Lin announced that he will re-sign with the New Taipei Kings (h/t Alberto De Roa of HoopsHype).
Lin wrote (via Instagram): “Year 15!
Re-signing w the Kings, excited for an encore w lil bro @joe_linstagram and the homies. As the saying goes, getting to the top isnt easy, staying there’s even harder. It wont be easy defending the title, but we’re excited for the challenge.
Grateful to be healthy and for every year I get to play.
