Former Nets PG, NBA sensation Jeremy Lin discharged from Shanghai Hospital after COVID-19 treatment

Linsanit, AKA Jeremy Lin, took the NBA by storm in 2011-2012 with the New York Knicks and played parts of two seasons with the Nets from 2016-2018 at the start of general manager Sean Marks' tenure with the team. Lin played only 37 games in two years with Brooklyn as injuries derailed his chance to be the team's starting point guard long-term.

In August of 2021, Jeremy Lin was admitted into a hospital in Shanghai after testing positive for COVID-19. Lin received three weeks of treatment to battle through the virus. Currently playing for the Beijing Ducks, Lin appears recovering and recuperating.
