Just a few hours after wondering if the fascination with New York Knicks guard Jeremy Lin was waning, now we’ve proof that people are still absolutely nuts when it comes to the point guard that wasn’t even in the team’s rotation three weeks ago. Though Lin doesn’t even have a significant endorsement deal to his name (though we’ve been assured that Nike is on the ready with a pair of Lin-branded shoes), a signed National Treasures rookie trading card from Lin’s one season with the Golden State Warriors in 2010-11 just sold on eBay for $21,580. The 36th bid was the winner.
As of the end of the bidding, by the way, Jeremy Lin has played a total of 756 NBA minutes thus far in his career. Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star Kevin Love, for comparison’s sake, has played about as many minutes since Jan. 14 of this year.
