Jeremy Lin news: While some people consider Lin as an overhyped NBA player, we cannot negate the fact that the 25-year-old Laker is a fun guy. 

And in a new report by Bleacher Report, the Lakers guard tried to pull out a prank on some tourists who were visiting Madame Tussauds wax museum in San Francisco. He posed as one of the wax figures and wait for tourists to take a picture beside him. 

Then, he'll just 'come to life', surprising them. 

Jeremy Lin is one of the most anticipated players of the Los Angeles Lakers this upcoming season, not because of his sheer talent, but his story which is a favorite among the diverge culture in California. 

Form his Linsanity days with the New York Knicks, to his poor performance with the Rockets, Lin is certainly due for redemption for his one-year contract with the league's most popular ballclub. And if he wants to stay in Los Angeles, he needs to step it up and prove that he can be an actual All-Star caliber type of player.

Joining him in the new look Laker lineup include Carlos Boozer from the Bulls, Ed Davis from Memphis, and rookie Julius Randle. Aside from that, most of the Los Angeles team last year has been retained. 

We'll see whether Kobe can carry this team on his shoulders to bring back the Lakers to the playoffs.
