Jeremy Lin Skips NBA for XMUT?

I recently spotted Jeremy Lin, the NBA's new star, on the campus basketball courts at Xiamen University of Technology (XMUT) this afternoon. Lin is not playing the rest of the NBA season for the New York Knicks due to a knee injury so I wondered whether he's moonlighting here in China. However, when I saw Kobe Bryant nearby as well, I started to get a bit suspicious.



Jeremy Lin being here is slightly more believable since he's currently on the Knicks disabled list and his parents are from nearby Taiwan, but Kobe might find it harder to escape from the Lakers at this time. In reality, Jeremy and Kobe were here only in cardboard cutout form (I wonder if the NBA has licensed their appearance). Jeremy, Kobe and some other NBA figures were just standing around while XMUT students competed in some dribbling and shooting contests.
