2017 NBA Manifesto
Jarell Martin
PF, 6’10 239lbs, 23 years old, 2 years of experience
Two years in, and Martin has yet to find a role; indeed, he regressed significantly from his rookie season as a sophomore, shooting 38.4% as a supposed big man and not being nearly physical enough. Martin is still projectable - he has stretch potential, good athleticism, the ability to run the court, the theoretical ability to drive the ball, a good rebounding rate and the potential to be a good stretch big defender. It is plenty imaginable that he could one day do what Green already does now, but it is also undeniable that he is a long way short of that.
Player Plan: Two years of rookie scale salary remaining. Could in theory step up in the wake of a Randolph departure. Should be given the opportunity to sink or swim, at least.
