There might not be a happier guy in the NBA than Los Angeles Lakers point guard Jeremy Lin. Traded by the Houston Rockets to Los Angeles a few weeks ago, Lin couldn’t contain his excitement knowing he’d not only be returning to his native California but he’d also get to play alongside Kobe Bryant.

Unable to contain his energy, Lin hasn’t only been hitting the gym in preparation of the upcoming year, he has also been using his mother as defender as he readies himself for his debut season in Hollywood.

Don’t believe me? Look no further than directly below as you’ll see Jeremy Lin dunking on a collection of family members and friends.

Things start off with Lin dunking on a young lady walking on the sidewalk as she texts away and they only get better from there.

An unsuspecting sleeper is the next target of Jeremy Lin’s prank as the point guard leaps and slams onto the bed after putting the ball through the basket, though the best dunk was saved for last.

As Jeremy Lin’s mother stood in the kitchen, completely unaware of what was about to happen, Lin came running into the camera view and with a basket placed right above her head, Lin flushed down an emphatic dunk. Hilarious as that was though, the over the top celebration completely capped off the video.

The young lady who appeared in the video seemed to be in on the dunks but the next two, including Lin’s mother seemed genuinely surprised by the dunk attacks which made for a great video.
