Lin shows off skills in the kitchen

A knee injury may have kept Jeremy Lin off the basketball court, but he was able to showcase some of his moves in the kitchen on Monday.

The point guard for the Brooklyn Nets celebrated the upcoming Chinese New Year on Monday with fans from China who took part in the NBA's 2018 Chinese New Year celebration.

Lin, the NBA's first Chinese-American player, participated in the preparation of a traditional Lunar New Year's dish - dumplings - with a chef from a Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn. Lin displayed his own technique for making fillings and dumpling wrappers.
