NBA Rumors: New York Knicks Wanted Lin Back; Did He Accept The Offer Or Not?

The Charlotte Hornets currently sits at number six in the Eastern Conference. As the playoffs approaches, the Hornets is considered a breakout team ready to face tougher teams head-on after their most recent impressive victory in a match with San Antonio Spurs.

With his remarkable court performance in many of his previous games, Jeremy 'Linsanity' Lin's perceived market value appears to have improved considerably ahead of July's free agent market.

Although Linsanity has been a proven major contributor, Lin is reportedly unhappy with his role at Hornets not to mention his $2 million salary that just might make search for a more lucrative paycheck.

"Lin has struggled to adjust to his unclear role with the Hornets, as his minutes are constantly shifting. When Kemba Walker is healthy and starting, Lin is relegated to backup duty or playing shooting guard while Walker or Nicolas Batum run the show. When Walker is hurt or playing poorly, Lin occasionally is allowed to settle into his favored role of creator and floor general," Gospel Herald reported.

Given his court performance with the Hornets, speculations have been churning out of rumor mill suggesting his possible return to New York Knicks as the team is looking forward its pool of talents with a highly skilled point guard.

But will he accept a re-sign offer back to his former team?

"I am having a lot of fun where I am at. I don't want to get too far ahead of myself. I just don't want to let free agency affect my focus. I haven't spoken about it, I am not thinking about it and I just want to ride this one out. This is a special season for me," said Lin as quoted by Sports Rageous.

Although unconfirmed, Lin's statement might be interpreted that he is not inclined to take any possible Knicks re-sign offer despite previous buzz on New York franchise's interest to get him on their roster of players.

Lin played for the Knicks in the 2011-12 averaging 14.6 points, 6.2 assists, and 3.1 rebounds in what was considered as his best season so far, according to a report by ESPN, taking New York to six wins in a row enabling the team to arrive at postseason.

He was then acquired by Houston Rockets for a three-year contract worth $25 million which Knicks refused to match back in the summer of 2012.
