Flynn's hard work pays off in Raps win
Norman Powell will see Malachi Flynn in practice sometimes and he’ll have a flashback. He’ll see the Raptors’ rookie point guard getting advice from the vets around him and it all feels familiar.
“He’s been tremendous in learning the game from Fred (VanVleet), myself and Kyle (Lowry), taking all the details that we tell him to prepare him for the game, into practice,” Powell said after Friday night’s win over Sacramento.
He sees Flynn coming in early and staying late, getting in extra work with coaches.
“He’s already a smart player and he knows the game. It’s about finding his spots and tonight he found his spots really well and was taking his shots with confidence.”
