Minnesota was obviously attracted to the championship pedigree and scoring ability that Ellington possesses. Just three days before the NBA Draft, Ellington displayed a quick release from the 3-point arch at a workout for the Wolves. On Draft night, Minnesota felt confident that Ellington would add a necessary component to the offense, shooting.

On the workout day, Ellington expressed excitement at the possibility of teaming up with a talented frontcourt, “No question. I think I can spread the floor, help guys penetrate, help the inside presence as well. I think I would definitely help this organization.”

“People always wonder can anything good come out of Niagara Falls, New York,” said Legislator Renae Kimble, D-Niagara Falls. “I’m here to tell you something good has come out of Niagara Falls, New York — Jonny Flynn.”

Flynn started his speech by thanking God for giving him the strength to make it through. He thanked his family for all their support and all the coaches who kept after him on the days when he felt like being lazy. He thanked Paul Harris, a fellow Falls High graduate and another ex-Syracuse University basketball star whom Flynn said helped him develop his court skills and treated him as if he were his real brother.

Lastly, Flynn thanked the city itself, and all those residents out there who supported him all these years.

“You see a lot of guys out there who don’t have much support,” Flynn told his raucous crowd of supporters. “I have a whole city behind me.”

And so he does.

Had it been election day, Flynn no doubt would have immediately been anointed mayor.
