Lakers point guard Jeremy Lin has shared his greatest sin.

Despite being widely known as a devout Christian and a hard worker who tends to keep to himself, Lin said that he struggles with his biggest sin - pride. The 25-year-old answered questions from fans on Facebook during his self-dubbed "Fan Appreciation Week".

According to Christian Post, during the Q & A, the new Lakers star revealed, "I'm not humble. Pride is [the] greatest sin I struggle with. But I'd say as I get older, go through more experiences in life and face tougher obstacles, I realize that I'm more sinful and need God more than I ever imagined."

In a report by Charisma News, Lin is not aiming to go for another round of Linsanity. He is, however, excited to work alongside Kobe Bryant and other members of the team. He said, "From the minute I stepped into Houston until now, I'm definitely a much more complete player. I've learned how to do a lot of things I maybe never had to do before."

He said in an article on Christian Post, "I'm not trying to recreate Linsanity. I'm not trying to be that phenomenon that happened in New York. I think I just want to be myself, more than ever. It's definitely been an up and down year for me. When I look back on the past two years, I think I've grown and learned a lot as a person, as a Christian and also as a basketball player."

Lin gained a lot of popularity when he was assigned in the starting lineup while playing for the New York Knicks in February 2012. He led the team to seven consecutive victories and became the first NBA player to average 20 points and seven assists in all the four games he started in. The stellar performance was referred to by fans as "Linsanity". However, Linsanity ended and he was traded to the Houston Rockets where he spent two uneventful years. During the summer, the Lakers acquired Lin.

In an article by Bleacher Report, Lin is expected to be the main Lakers point guard in the upcoming season, considering how the aging Steve Nash is no longer the player he used to be. Jordan Clarkson might serve as Lin's backup, depending on the latter's performance.

Nash also said that he will do as much as he can without hurting himself, "I'm obviously not trying to overdo it so I can allow that nerve to settle down perhaps and be less irritating. It has worked so far, but I would hate to say this is where it will be like once I join the rigors of an NBA schedule."
