CNN's American Morning

Jeremy Lin was interviewed on CNN’s American Morning with T.J. Holmes. It’s been about 60 years since we’ve seen an Asian American play basketball as well as a Harvard grad in the sport. Lin talks about his unique story. He’s trying to set an example on and off the court for young people and his fellow NBA players. Listen to his inspirational story and see what he says when he’s asked 10 years from now which will be more impressive on the resume being in the NBA or being a Harvard grad.
