Jeremy Lin lands Time Magazine cover

Found February 17, 2012 on Terez Owens: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jeremy Lin
TEAMS: New York Knicks

From Terez Owens:

Here in the states, Jeremy Lin is big, but in Asia, the phenomenon known as Linsanity took the cover with Kim Jong Un relegated to the inside of the mag. Yes, Jeremy Lin made the cover of Time and it was only a few weeks ago no one even knew his name.
