After a very crazy season with the Los Angeles Lakers, the young point guard in Jeremy Lin might be looking for different options this year.
Last year was his first year with the Lakers and things did not go as expected. Jeremy Lin went through a lot of ups and downs. In the beginning of the season he was the Lakers starting point guard. Then he started backing up point guard Ronnie Price for a while and then he started backing up rookie point guard Jordan Clarkson.
Things did not go so well for Lin in his first year with the Lakers but now that he is a free agent there are a lot of teams that are interested in getting him.
One option for Lin is going to the Dallas Mavericks. He would probably replace either Rajon Rondo, or Monta Ellis. The Mavericks are a good team for him and he would also be playing with a couple of his former teammates such as Tyson Chandler who played with him during the Linsanity run with the Knicks, Chandler Parsons who played with him on the Houston Rockets, and Monta Ellis who Lin didn't play with as much in his rookie year with the Warriors.
Another option for the young point guard is for him to go to the Sacramento Kings. They have lately been interested in getting him from the Lakers. With the Kings, Lin would be able to have the freedom of using his play making ability without Kobe Bryant or Jordan Clarkson on the floor with him. Lin could really help out the Kings if they brought him over. He would make a good team with Rudy Gay and Demarcus Cousins also on the Kings.
The developing point guard might also even be considering playing with the Lakers for another year. The Lakers might not be a good fit for Lin because he will have to fight for the point guard spot with a lot of other younger guys.
The Lakers might not have been a good fit for the 26 year old point guard who is still developing and getting better but this coming year Jeremy Lin will find a team that is a good fit for him whether it is the Lakers again or a different team.
