It looks like Knicks phenomenon Jeremy Lin has scored more than points on the basketball court recently. The 23-year-old athlete has just moved up to Westchester County in White Plains, a step up couch surfing at his brother's apartment when he initially joined the team. According to the New York Daily News, the sports star is subletting a two-bedroom apartment in the city's Trump Towers, but he isn't the first Knicks player to dwell in the swanky downtown White Plains apartment. Here are other Knicks players that have spent some time there:
