Jeremy Lin is still getting used to being a Toronto Raptor as he’s only been a member of the team for one week now, and he’s got to adapt to more things than just a new playbook. Since the 30-year-old joined the Raptors right before the NBA All-Star Weekend he hasn’t had the opportunity to spend much time with his new teammates so he’s still getting familiar with everyone around him, as well as getting used to his new threads.
The Raptors returned to practice on Wednesday night as they prepare for DeMar DeRozan’s return to Toronto on Friday night and the Torrance, California had a bit of a funny slip up as he was getting ready to workout.
Lin wore No. 7 with the Golden State Warriors, Houston Rockets, Charlotte Hornets, Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks, so you can’t blame him for going directly towards the No. 7 uniform in the locker room. Luckily for Lin, Lowry wasn’t in attendance to witness the hilarious mishap.
According to TSN’s Josh Lewenberg, Lin is also still trying to learn everyone’s name and has turned to a veteran and one of the newcomers for some guidance.
Lin scored eight points and added five assists and five rebounds in 25 minutes of action off the bench in his Raptors debut.
