Jonny Flynn - NBA

NBA

Flynn was drafted No. 6 overall in the 2009 NBA Draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

On October 28, 2009, Flynn made his professional debut and sparked a rally for the Timberwolves, coming back from 19 points down. Flynn scored 13 points in the 4th quarter to lead the Timberwolves to a victory over the New Jersey Nets.

On December 14, 2009, he made the driving game-winning layup to beat the Utah Jazz 110 to 108, scoring 28 points.

On January 18, 2010, he set a new career high with 29 points against the Philadelphia 76ers in a 108-103 overtime victory.

At the end of the season, Flynn was selected to the All-Rookie 2nd team.

Flynn underwent hip surgery during the summer of 2010. His 2010-11 campaign was widely considered to be a disappointment, as his numbers dipped to 5.3 points per game and only 3.4 assists per game. This led to much speculation of his departure following the season.

During the 2011 NBA Draft, Flynn was traded to the Houston Rockets along with Donatas Motiejunas in exchange for Brad Miller, the number 23 and 38 picks in the draft, and a future first round draft pick.

On March 15, 2012, Flynn was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers along with Hasheem Thabeet and a future second round pick for Marcus Camby.

On October 1, 2012, Flynn signed with the Detroit Pistons. On October 22, 2012, Flynn was waived by the Pistons.
