Flynn will join a Spurs backcourt that was lean on experience last season but now has a healthy mix of young and old in 2024-25.
Earlier this offseason, the Spurs signed veteran guard Chris Paul to a one-year deal in an attempt to bring stability to the point guard position. San Antonio also drafted 6-foot-6 guard Stephon Castle with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Additionally, Flynn joins a core that includes Devin Vassell, Tre Jones and Malaki Branham.
Flynn, 26, split time during the 2023-24 season between the New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons. His most notable game came on April 3 when Flynn, then a Detroit Piston, scored 50 points against the Atlanta Hawks.
The Pistons lost that game by eight points.
San Antonio’s preseason schedule begins on Monday, Oct. 7.
