IAN MARTINEZ NEWS

Consistent scoring for Aggies Martinez logged 15 points (5-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 65-62 loss to UNLV.

Impact Despite Wednesday's road defeat, Martinez is having a banner year with the Aggies, leading the way with a 16.7 ppg scoring average that is also a career best. What's possibly the most impressive is the fact he's scored 11 or more points in every single game this season. Both his shot volume and free-throw percentage are up tremendously, which has so far offset a dips in field goal and three-point percentage. This loss may have cost Martinez and the Aggies their spot in the national rankings, and they won't get a chance to rebound until next Wednesday against Nevada.

Shines vs. Air Force Martinez finished with 21 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist and three steals in 29 minutes during Friday's 72-60 victory over Air Force.

Impact The senior from Costa Rica had been going through a bit of a shooting slump (scoring in single digits in four of his last seven outings), but it seems as if he broke out of it during Friday's win. Martinez supplied Utah State with a much-needed scoring surge, putting up 21 points with extremely efficient shooting splits of 70/40/100. Expect the 6-foot-3 guard to continue knocking down shots for the Aggies as look to beat San Jose State come Mar. 6.

Impact Martinez finished second on the Aggies' in scoring during Saturday's loss, supplying an efficient 14 points to go along with his five boards. The senior from Costa Rica has had an up-and-down season thus far, but he's been productive nonetheless, averaging 13.6 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. Expect Martinez to continue being one of Utah State's most effective scorers as the Aggies take on San Diego State on Tuesday.

Receives NCAA waiver Martinez received a waiver from the NCAA and is eligible for the 2023-24 season, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact With Martinez receiving his waiver, he will have his season debut in Saturday's game against Bradley. The senior guard was a two-time transfer who previously played at Maryland and Utah. He appeared in 63 games for Maryland, averaging 4.4 points, 2.1 rebound and .8 assists per game across two seasons.

Still awaiting waiver Martinez is still awaiting an NCAA waiver for eligibility in the 2023-24 season, Jeff Goodman of Stadium reports.

Impact After spending time at Utah and Maryland to begin his collegiate career, Martinez now needs a waiver to gain immediate clearance under the NCAA's new transfer stipulations. Unfortunately, few multi-time, undergrad transfers have successfully lobbied for a waiver, and the decision-making process has been painfully slow. Martinez already missed an exhibition game on Friday while awaiting clearance, and he should be considered questionable, at best, for Monday's season opener against South Dakota Mines.

Scores 11 points off bench Martinez contributed 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 3Pt) and two rebounds across 18 minutes during Sunday's 65-64 loss to Penn State.

Impact Martine worked hard in limited minutes but also made three turnovers during the tight loss. His ceiling still isn't great as a backup guard.

Logs seven points in loss Martinez finished with seven points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) in 15 minutes during Sunday's 58-55 loss to Purdue.

Impact Martinez continues to add depth from the bench, scoring 13 points total in his last two games. He's still made improvements by averaging 6.1 points per game, which is well above the 2.8 he recorded in his first season at Maryland following a transfer from Utah.

JANUARY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 16 points in loss Martinez racked up 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 87-60 loss to UCLA.

Impact Martinez set a new season-high for points scored in a game, surpassing double digits for a third time. It will take an increase in his 16.8 minutes per game if Martinez is to increase his production, as he's shooting fairly well at 47.4 percent from the field and 40.9 percent from the three point line.

Tallies 12 points off bench Martinez logged 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 16 minutes during Thursday's 110-87 loss to Iowa.

Impact Martinez has returned to a bench role following his Jan. 16 start, and he hasn't been a consistent part of the Terrapins' rotation since then. However, he saw a slight uptick in playing time during Thursday's blowout loss and scored in double figures for the second time this season.

Starting Tuesday Martinez is in the starting lineup Tuesday against Michigan.
