Jeremy Lin's popularity continues to soar, a fact most supported by a rumored shoe deal with Nike.
The industry giant doesn't want to let this opportunity pass. Releasing a Lin basketball shoe while he is the hottest commodity in sports will surely send the masses into a feeding frenzy at stores across the world.
And with this fresh, young face gracing every media outlet known to humanity on a daily basis, new endorsement offers are sure to land on his 20th-story doorstep in White Plains, NY.
How much will Jeremy Lin make from his shoe deal with Nike?
CounterKicks is reporting that they have "received a tip from previously credible sources that Nike has created a Jeremy Lin 'Linsanity' edition Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 shoe for the point guard sensation to wear."
Jeremy Lin has made a big splash in the U.S. and all over the world during the NBA basketball's shortened season as he plays for the New York Knicks and thanks to injuries and other factors was moved from the end of the bench to the starting line-up.
The result - it appears Jeremy Lin is a very good basketball player and the Knicks went on a seven-game win streak with Lin running the show, which included his first six NBA starts.
