Former Syracuse Orange guard Jonny Flynn is on the move again.

Flynn, traded from the Minnesota Timberwolves to the Houston Rockets before the season, is now headed to the Portland Trail Blazers, the Houston Chronicle is reporting.

The Chronicle says that the Rockets will send Flynn, center Hasheem Thabeet and a second-round pick to Portland for Marcus Camby.

Flynn left Syracuse after the 2008-2009 season and was drafted by the Timberwolves with the No. 6 selection in the 2009 NBA draft. Flynn averaged 13.5 points and 4.4 assists per game and was a second-team All-Rookie selection. Flynn struggled in his second season -- thanks in part to a nagging hip injury -- and he was traded in the offseason to the Rockets. Flynn has played sparingly with Houston this season, appearing in just 11 games.
