Lin also reportedly planned to give a fan a pair of signed sneakers after the game:

The 31-year-old⁠—who played⁠ in the NBA for nine seasons and won a championship with the Toronto Raptors last season—previously scored 40 points for the Ducks in a preseason game.

Sunday was a nice start for Lin and the Ducks—who also feature Justin Hamilton and Ekpe Udoh—and they will next be in action Wednesday against Shandong.
