He’s shot 45 per cent from beyond the three-point arc in the last six games for a Toronto team desperate for long-range. Defensively, he’s been fine and that’s always been an issue.
teammates admire Malachi Flynn for his patience and professionalism, as frustrating as that may be for a young player trying to carve out an NBA niche.
Flynn has played more in the last six Raptors games than he had in the six weeks previous, averaging nearly 27 minutes a game. He’s provided some most-welcome three-point shooting accuracy — 14 for 31 in those games for a Toronto team desperate for long-range shooting. “Well, he has been pretty good down there,” coach Nick Nurse said Tuesday. “They put him in some pretty tough situations tonight a couple of times. But nothing major. He has been adequate and tough and feisty down there.”
“He’s got back spasms,” Nurse said Wednesday of VanVleet. “They kind of show up and go away. We’ll see how it goes. We’ll manage it the best we can.” Morant and the Grizzlies thrive in transition, which hasn’t been one of Toronto’s defensive strongholds this season. Slowing the pace somehow and keeping Morant from living at the rim is a huge key.
