‘I’m done, I’m done’: Jeremy Lin leaves court in tears after knee injury in Brooklyn Nets’ NBA opener
Taiwanese-American basketball star set to undergo evaluation after landing awkwardly on his right knee during loss to Indiana Pacers
Jeremy Lin could be facing a long spell on the sidelines after suffering what appeared to be a serious knee injury in the Brooklyn Nets’ NBA opener.
The Taiwanese-American basketball player drove to the basket for a contested lay-up during the fourth quarter of the 140-131 loss at the Indiana Pacers, but landed awkwardly and crumpled to the court.
He clutched at his right knee immediately and stared at it for several seconds in an apparent state of shock as his teammates came over to check on him.
Lin then repeatedly said “I’m done, I’m done” and burst into tears, writhing in pain on the floor.
