Video Game Finally Pays Jeremy Lin More Respect

The video game NBA 2K12, published by 2K Sports, did the unprecedented and upgraded Jeremy’s player rating twice in one week. The game had initially rated him at a lowly 56 (out of 99). After his breakout performances, however, that was bound to change. His first ratings update came about a week ago to a 69. Then a few days ago, his rating was set to 75, where it currently stands. The most recent update puts his rating near that of Ricky Rubio, who has a 77. If Jeremy continues to deliver the wins, expect more upgrades to come.
