Jeremy Lin is set to take over Brooklyn next season but he is bringing all of his crazy hairstyles with him. He recently unveiled his newest hairdo during his introductory press conference and he is not going to stop there.
Lin's brother, Joseph, posted a new braid-like hairstyle on Instagram along with his other brothers. It was different from his press conference braid but it will only get crazier as the new season inches closer.
That braid lyfe. Judge me. Lol. #squadGod

In his first and only season with the Charlotte Hornets, Lin did not only revitalize his career but he also brought in a lot of crazy hairstyles. He started it with a Bowl Cut during the preseason before boasting seven other hairdos in the season.
According to GQ Magazine, the most notable hairstyle the point guard rocked was the Comb-Over from January to March. The Hornets went 15-1 during that stretch and Lin averaged 11.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists.
However, it was not all good since the Hornets went 13-17 when Lin had the Slicked-Back hair. He scored five points or less in six different games during that span before going to another hairstyle. Some of the hairstyle that Lin rocked last season include the Headband, Man Bun, Mohawk, Ponytail and Double Ponytail.
On the other hand, Lin playing for Brooklyn is only going to make him more famous since it is a big market. According to Nothin' But Nets, the Internet will explode for every hairstyle the Harvard product will rock next season.
But on a more serious note, this will be Lin's last chance of proving to the world that "Linsanity" in 2012 was not a fluke. He decided to sign a three-year, $36 million deal with the Nets because of the opportunity to become a starter again.
Even though Lin was seventh in the sixth man voting last season, he believes that he is capable of leading a team. He will be working with head coach Kenny Atkinson, who is often credited by Lin for the explosion of "Linsanity."
This time around in Brooklyn, just six miles from where he first become famous, Lin is betting on himself to have the best season of his career. It is despite being with a Nets team that many analysts believe as one of the worst in the NBA.
