Malachi Flynn enters a make-or-break season, and fortunately for him, Nick Nurse is no longer with the Toronto Raptors. It has been a frustrating three seasons for Flynn, starting from redshirting while the Raptors front office shopped GROAT Kyle Lowry around to showing what he’s capable of in Tampa. The following two seasons saw him end up in Nurse’s dog house (“Nick Nursery”) quite a lot, or when he saw the floor in meaningful minutes, he was not part of the offense for the most part.
Now we’re here. Flynn is entering his fourth season and a contract year, with his best stretch as a professional basketball felt like a decade ago.
