Jeremy Lin has been linked to Chinese model-actress Xu Dongdong, but the 25 year old denies any romantic interest, reports Yahoo.
The two have been seen together at various places, most recently when Lin attended a charity dinner in Hong Kong.
Xu who has been named by some as China’s sexiest model says it was just a coincidence.
“I love watching him play, and I am a fan of his. I am also a friend, but not his girlfriend,” Xu said.
In the next breath, she threw out this perhaps flirtatious tease.
“I want to know him better. I am fond of him.”
You can look at a photo of Xu in Yahoo.
If Xu is going to get Lin’s attention, she’ll have to compete with Kristina Wong.
The comedian launched a Kickstarter campaign last August to win Lin’s attention and affection.
The campaign to buy courtside seats to see Jeremy play fell a few hundred dollars short of her goal of $5,400.
