Jeremy Lin recently made a video featuring some of his friends and former team mates. The Charlotte Hornets guard gives his fans some sort of tips on how to fit in the NBA, hence, the title "How To Fit In NBA."
Lin said that it was important to know how to fit in, and over the past years, some of his friends and team mates taught him to do that.
1. First Impressions Are Important
The 27-year-old basketball player said that it is essential to understand communication and greetings. It's imperative to know what expressions like "I feel like I haven't seen you in a minute" mean.
2. Sacrifice
Sacrificing in doing little things is important. In the video, it came in a manner when a fellow NBA player asked him for a picture, but he ended up being the cameraman.
Fans find it hilarious when Lin took the phone and said, "1...2...3... I'm in the NBA also," while he was taking a snap. His expression on the video may seem funny, but Lin said it happened all the time when he was a rookie.
"Steph and David Lee got picture requests and they thought I was the trainer or the film guy and would ask me to take it," he said during a Q&A on Reddit, USA Today Sports learned.
3. Fashion
He said that was crucial to learn and understand fashion because they are always in the public spotlight.
4. Dancing & Music
Lin pointed out that dancing and music are part of NBA's culture. It was important to understand them to fit in, and it's a good thing he has his pal, Dwight Howard, to teach him how to move.
He also got reinforcements from Steph Curry's, the Golden State Warriors, daughter. Here's what he has got to say about Riley dancing "Nae Nae" on the video.
"Thank you for watching Riley Curry's youtube video where I make a brief cameo lol. She stole the show!" he said on Reddit.
Lin admitted, when he was asked in a Reddit AMA, that he was nervous meeting the 2014-2015 NBA MVP's daughter, and he was starstruck, Alice @97.3 reported.
