The Toronto Raptors 2020 first-round pick is fitting into the system perfectly after two pre-season games.

Drafted 29th overall in the 2020 NBA Draft, the expectations for Toronto Raptors fans were very low for guard Malachi Flynn.

Although he won the Mountain West Conference Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year awards, there wasn’t a ton of buzz with him around him. However, this has all shifted after two pre-season games against the Charlotte Hornets

Even though he started on the bench, Flynn was one of the leaders in minutes, averaging 20 minutes per game.
