Summary | "Have you ever been told that you CAN'T? Growing up in the Bay Area, Jeremy Lin heard that over and over again. People made fun of his size and his race and wouldn't give him a chance. But Jeremy persevered until he became the first Taiwanese American to play in the NBA. And when his big moment came, he seized it! Jeremy's meteoric rise, dubbed 'Linsanity,' inspired the world and a whole generation of young Asian Americans."-- |
