The Minnesota Timberwolves have to be pleased with the graduating rookie class
21-year old point guard Jonny Flynn was solid as a rookie for the Timberwolves this year. Flynn played in 81 games (all starts) for the Timberwolves this season and he averaged 28.9 minutes, 13.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.0 steal per game. He has a kind of swagger to him that rubs off on his teammates. The only thing I think he needs to do is pass more next season as they has already proven that he can score. A point guard’s job is to make everyone better offensively around him and I think Flynn will do more of that next season. 22-year old shooting guard Wayne Ellington really played decent off the bench and he could work his way into more playing time in the future. Ellington played in 76 games (1 start) for the Timberwolves this year and he averaged 18.2 minutes, 6.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game.
