The NBA has reportedly opened an investigation into whether an Asian-American player in its developmental league, Jeremy Lin, was the subject of anti-Asian racism, The New York Times says, after Lin posted on Facebook that another player called him “coronavirus” during a game.
Lin, who is Taiwanese-American, is a player in the NBA’s “G-League,” or developmental league, and is considered “one of the best-known Asian-American players in basketball,” according to the Times. He has been part of the league for nearly a decade.
