In a match between Lin'sKaohsiung 17LIVE Steelers andFormosa Taishin Dreamers, the former NBA guard was battling for a rebound at the beginning of the second quarter. In the process, he was elbowed by Dreamers' Chris McCullough.

Lin immediately collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up. A fencing response could be seen in Lin's actions as his fingers bent in an unnatural way, a common occurrence after suffering a concussion.

The player suffered two blows to the head - the immediate impact into the front of his skull and then another blow when he fell to the ground.

Even though a stretcher was brought out, Lin was able to walk to the bench on his own feet, stumbling at times.

The team's general manager Gao Jingyan has told that Lin has been transferred to a local hospital for further evaluation.

Lin recorded 5 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in almost 11 minutes of play. In 19 matches with the team, Lin has been averaging 26.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 8.9 assists per game.
