Martin has appeared in 44 games for the Heat this season, making 10 starts along the way. Overall, he’s averaging 9.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 assist per contest.
Martin has been extremely efficient from the field this season. He’s knocking down a whopping 50.6 percent of his field goals. In addition, he has displayed an ability to do damage from beyond the arc, as he’s shooting 37.9 percent from deep.
The third-year player will now look to help the Heat make a deep playoff run, which is something he hasn’t yet experienced in his NBA career. It has been a somewhat wild ride for him this season, but he’s surely loving every minute of it.
The Heat are currently at the top of the Eastern Conference with a 37-20 record.
