⚠️ Heads up: this article is from our "experimental era" — a beautiful mess of enthusiasm ✨, caffeine ☕, and user-submitted chaos 🤹. We kept it because it’s part of our journey 🛤️ (and hey, everyone has awkward teenage years 😅).
Former NBA star Jeremy Lin, leading Taiwan’s New Taipei Kings, has been suspended for five games and fined $4,719 after receiving blood treatment for a foot injury violation. Lin's Intravenous Laser Irradiation of Blood (ILIB) treatment, aimed at injury recovery, violated World Anti-Doping Agency rules. The Kings maintain that the treatment is legal, despite WADA's stance. Despite the controversy, Lin continues to lead the team to a successful season at home and a regional playoff berth.
