Malachi Flynn was undoubtedly the man of the NBA night, given his 50 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 rebounds in the Detroit Pistons’ loss to the Atlanta Hawks. If you do not know who we are talking about, do not worry, it is normal. Then again. Malachi Flynn is a nobody who in 4 seasons in the NBA (actually between NBA and G-League) had not done anything interesting.
The highest point average he had held was. 7.5 in his rookie season at the Toronto Raptors in 2020-2021. Despite this, the following year he also experienced some time with the Raptors 905, the G-League affiliate of the Canadian franchise. This year he had started in Toronto, only to be traded to the New York Knicks. in the deal that moved RJ Barrett and then to be included in the trade that brought Bogdan Bogdanovic to the New York Knicks.. In short, one of many. Until this night.
On the night, however, the game that drags him to prominence, the one against the Atlanta Hawks. He surpasses his previous career-high by 23 points., dating back to his first NBA season in a Toronto jersey, a 27-point contest against the Indiana Pacers played on May 16, 2021, in the last regular season game. Then everything else is history and now he can enjoy the moment.
