A 14-year-old boy named Julius Orri Agustsson spotted Lin in an ice cream shop and asked for a photo and autograph, after which the boy's mother invited Lin over to their house to play a game of one-on-one on their backyard court.

Lin accepted, and suddenly Julius was actually playing a famous NBA player in his backyard.

Lin was taking it easy on young Julius until the end when he had to make a little comeback at which point he started getting out of breath and said, "I haven't played in a little bit, so I'm a little out of shape." Luckily, there's plenty of time before training camp begins.
