Linsanity: Knicks benchwarmer becomes a star

Posted:

NEW YORK (AP) - In just one week, Jeremy Lin has proven he's so much more than just a great story.

Turns out, he's a terrific basketball player.

Lin scored a career-high 38 points Friday night to lead the Knicks to a 92-85 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. After scoring 28 and 23 in his first two NBA starts, he outplayed Kobe Bryant in front of a national TV audience, leaving delirious fans without their voices and his coach without the words to describe it.

Forget Tebowing. Linsanity is the new sports sensation.
