The New York Knicks have announced that Jeremy Lin’s jersey that was worn during the team’s victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Feb. 10 is being auctioned off to benefit the Garden of Dreams Foundation, a nonprofit organization making dreams come true for children facing obstacles.
Lin posted a career high of 38 points, seven assists, four rebounds and two steals in that game.
Fans can now bid for the autographed jersey, four tickets and a postgame meet and greet with Lin for the Feb. 22 game versus Atlanta, on CharityBuzz.com. The online auction will end on Feb. 21.
