New York Knicks player Jeremy Lin has applied to trademark "Linsanity" earlier this week and coughed up a $1,625 filing fee to use the name on apparel, The Huffington Post reported Friday.

The move was confirmed by a Lin representative.

"We're prepared to protect his intellectual property rights," said Pam Deese of the law firm Arent Fox.

《赫芬顿邮报》报道，纽约尼克斯队的林书豪上周支付了1625美元登记费，申请注册“林疯狂”商标，用于所有类型的服饰。

他的代理律师确认了此事。

阿伦特福克斯律师事务所的潘·蒂斯说：“我们已经准备好了，要保护他的知识产权。”
