Will Carmelo Anthony make his return with the national team?

Jeremy Lin attracting interest from Europe

Jeremy Lin spent the second half of the 18-19 season with the Toronto Raptors

Despite hitting free agency earlier this summer, Jeremy Lin has yet to find a new team, and Sportando is reporting that the veteran guard is attracting interest from the current Euroleague champions:

Jeremy Lin is CSKA Moscow’s top target at guard position, a source told Sportando. (CSKA) need a guard to finalize the roster for next season and they made an offer to the NBA champion who is actually free agent

Lin started the 18-19 season with the Atlanta Hawks, averaging 10.7 points and shooting 34.7 percent from three over 51 appearances. The 30-year-old was waived around the trade deadline and subsequently joined the Toronto Raptors.

Lin quickly found a spot in Nick Nurse's regularseason rotation, although the former Knicks star made just eight appearances during the postseason, averaging 3.4 minutes per game.
