I mean, I get Asian jokes and, you know, when other fans try to heckle us, I don't really hear from other players very much.
The current Rockets coach also acknowledged what Amar'e Stoudemire previously stated: there was resentment from players, including Anthony, for Jeremy Lin.
Rex Walters, the University of San Francisco coach since 2008 and the most recent Asian-American to play in the N.B.A., said N.C.A.A. recruiting rules that limit coaches' visits to watch players impeded Lin's discovery

After testing positive, I lost about 20 pounds. That is what affected me the most.
"I've lived in China this past season and now being back on US soil, I'm saddened by the racist comments regarding the virus in China.

Palo Alto won 32 of them this season (losing only one), including a 51–47 upset of nationally ranked Mater Dei for the CIF State Division II title at Arco Arena two weeks ago.
The Pac-10 schools wanted me to walk-on. The Ivy League schools, Harvard and Brown, were the two ones that really wanted me to go there and play for them.

'I hear everything: "Go back to China. Orchestra is on the other side of campus. Open up your eyes,"' Lin said. 'They're yelling at me before, during and after. I'm an easy target because I'm Asian. Sometimes it makes me uncomfortable, but it's part of the game.'
