INJURIES

Empty production Friday Martin produced 14 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and six rebounds in 30 minutes during Friday's 114-112 victory over New Orleans.
Impact Martin continues to log heavy minutes for the Rockets, scoring in double digits for the fifth straight game. However, he failed to record a defensive stat, souring what was otherwise another decent performance. Martin has been somewhat of a surprise this season, putting himself on the radar thanks to consistent playing time and serviceable production. He is by no means a must-roster player but typically does just enough to maintain value no matter the format.
MARCH 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Plays season-high 40 minutes Martin supplied 20 points (8-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 40 minutes in Monday's 111-109 win over Boston.
Impact The 40 minutes were a new season high for Martin, who may have benefited to some degree from Jabari Smith playing exclusively at center while Alperen Sengun (groin) was sidelined. Given that Sengun was initially listed as probable before being ruled out shortly before the opening tip, he has a good chance at returning to action Wednesday versus the Lakers, but Martin shouldn't be headed for too dramatic of a downturn in playing time. Prior to Monday, Martin had played no fewer than 27 minutes in any of his 26 appearances since entering the starting five, and he averaged 14.5 points and 6.7 rebounds and shot 57.3 percent from the field over that stretch.

Lands 23 points in loss Martin finished with 23 points (9-13 FG, 5-8 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 32 minutes during Thursday's 134-125 overtime loss to Indiana.
Impact Martin continues to put together the best season of his career, having now scored in double digits in seven of his past eight games. While he is outside the top 150 for the season, over the past month he has yielded top-100 value. He is locked in as a starter, and although there are a couple of glaring flaws in his overall game, he remains a must-roster player in just about every format.
MARCH 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Another solid outing Martin amassed 14 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Sunday's 131-114 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Martin has drawn 19 straight starts with Kevin Porter (foot) sidelined and is averaging 14.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.2 steals-plus-blocks in 32.2 minutes during that stretch. The third-year wing is in the middle of a career season and should continue to get plenty of opportunities to build off his success while Porter and Jalen Green (groin) remain out.

Paces team with 22 points Martin finished Friday's 116-101 loss to the Warriors with a team-high 22 points (7-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT) to go with eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 36...
Impact The Rockets opened their second-half schedule without two of their primary scorers in Jalen Green (groin) and Kevin Porter (foot), so Martin stepped up to fill some of the void. Even before the All-Star break, Martin's production had been on the rise upon him moving into the starting five in mid-January. While starting each of the past 18 games, Martin has averaged 14.2 points and 7.4 boards while shooting 56.6 percent from the field, but his numbers in just about every other category have been limited (1.8 assists, 0.8 three-pointers, 0.7 blocks and 0.5 steals per game, 68.3 percent shooting from the free-throw line).

FEBRUARY 15, 2023 • WASHINGTONPOST.COM
Surpasses 15-point mark once again Martin logged 17 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 38 minutes during Friday's 97-95 loss to the Heat.
Impact Martin had another efficient performance and found a way to contribute on both ends of the court despite the Rockets losing again. Martin has been a regular starter since Jan. 13 and is not expected to move back to the bench anytime soon, especially if he continues to play as well as he's done of late. He's reached the 15-point mark in six of his last seven appearances and is averaging 15.3 points with 6.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game across six February outings.
FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Submits another efficient scoring game Martin finished Monday's 140-120 loss to the Kings with 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds and one assist in 32 minutes.
Impact Martin continues to deliver scarce production in most of the peripheral categories, but he's been an excellent source of efficient scoring and solid rebounding numbers since entering the starting five in place of Kevin Porter (foot). During his ongoing 13-game run with the top unit, Martin has averaged 14.0 points and 7.8 rebounds while shooting 58.3 percent from the field.
FEBRUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Continues hot streak Martin logged 20 points (8-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block across 35 minutes during Friday's 117-111 loss to the Raptors.
Impact Martin has been on a tear over his last 10 games, averaging 15.4 points and 8.4 rebounds on 59.8 percent shooting. Although his expanded workload will end upon the return of Jalen Green (calf) and Kevin Porter (foot/toe), fantasy managers should be able to enjoy Martin's increased output for a few more games.
FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores 18 in win Martin had 18 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 112-106 win over the Thunder.
Impact Martin has started 10 consecutive games, and he's been a well-rounded contributor during that time. He posted double-doubles in two of his three appearances prior to Wednesday's victory, and he matched his second-highest assist total of the season against Oklahoma City. Across his last 10 outings, he's averaged 14.0 points and 8.2 rebounds in 31.2 minutes per game.
FEBRUARY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Secures another double-double Martin had 15 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one block over 27 minutes during Saturday's 117-114 win over Detroit.
Impact Martin shot efficiently from the field and notched his second double-double in three games. He's managed to score in double figures in seven of his team's last eight contests, averaging 14.5 points, 8.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists over this stretch.
JANUARY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Records strong double-double Martin closed Wednesday's 108-103 loss to Washington with 16 points (8-13 FG, 0-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one block over 34 minutes.
Impact Martin posted his first double-double since November and was excellent on both ends of the court, but his efforts weren't enough to lift the Rockets in a tight matchup. Martin has started in each of Houston's last seven games and is averaging 13.3 points with 8.0 rebounds in that span.
JANUARY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Keeps producing as starter Martin produced 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), seven rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 122-117 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Martin sniffed a double-double in Wednesday's loss, and he continues to produce as a starter. He's averaging 14.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game since jumping into a starting role, and he should remain in that status as long as Kevin Porter (foot) remains sidelined.
JANUARY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Swats two shots in loss Martin amassed 17 points (7-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and two blocks in 30 minutes during Monday's 140-132 loss to the Lakers.
Impact All five of Houston's starters scored in double figures Monday, and Martin finished fourth on the team with 17 points. The third-year forward also tied for second on the Rockets in both rebounds (seven) and blocks (two), with the latter tying his season-high mark. Martin has started each of Houston's past three contests, averaging 15.0 points, 6.7 boards and 1.3 triples over that span.
JANUARY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Near double-double in start Martin contributed 22 points (9-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and two assists over 33 minutes during Sunday's 121-100 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Martin got the start due to Kevin Porter (foot) and Jalen Green (suspension) being out Sunday, finishing one rebound shy of a double-double performance. Martin has tallied at least 20 points and five rebounds in four games this season.
JANUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Picks up second straight start Martin will start at small forward in Sunday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Houston will be without two of its regular starters in Kevin Porter (foot) and Jalen Green (suspension), opening up spots on the top unit for Martin and Daishen Nix. While Porter was sidelined for Friday's 139-114 loss to the Kings, Martin started for the first time since Dec. 27 and finished with six points (1-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-6 FT) and four rebounds in 34 minutes. Another healthy minutes load likely awaits him Sunday.
JANUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Gets starting nod Martin is in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Kings, Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
Impact Martin will enter the starting lineup Friday with Kevin Porter (foot) out. The 21-year-old forward is averaging 13.4 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 30.5 minutes across his previous eight starts.
JANUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Clears 20-point mark Martin finished with 21 points (9-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 27 minutes in Wednesday's 135-115 loss to the Kings.
Impact With 20-plus minutes in each of the Rockets' past six games, Martin has seemingly established himself as Houston's top forward off the bench ahead of rookie Tari Eason, who is averaging 18.3 minutes per contest over that same span. The recent return of Jae'Sean Tate from injury hasn't been especially detrimental to either Martin or Eason, as Tate has instead settled in as the Rockets' primary backup point guard while TyTy Washington has been cut out of the rotation and sent to the G League's Rio Grande Valley Vipers. That being said, Martin doesn't look as though he'll have much room to see his role expand, and even after Wednesday's scoring outburst, he's still averaging a modest 11.0 points over that aforementioned six-game stretch on what is probably unsustainable shooting (57.4 percent from the field, 40 percent from three-point range). Martin still looks like more of an option for deeper category and points leagues rather than 12-team formats or shallower.
