Our View:Martin has been uncharacteristically inconsistent this season. In his other three games, he has failed to score over 17 points.

Our View:This is mostly a precautionary move and Martin should be ready to go and go big from the season opener.

Our View:Martin could make a run at the NBA scoring title this season, and he is sensational when it comes to getting and sinking freebies. Those two stats make him a strong asset in fantasy leagues. |
|

Our View:Martin has improved his scoring in each of the past three seasons up to his career best total of 23.7 points last season, but could continue to leave a bit to be desired in the other stat categories, hence hindering his fantasy value. |
|
October 15, 2008 Kevin Martin did what he always does on Wednesday night and that is score points in bushels as he beat the Clippers defense for 29 points on 9-for-11 shooting from the field combined with a 9-for-12 effort from the free throw line. Our View:Martin has improved his scoring in each of the past three seasons up to his career best total of 23.7 points last season. He may not contribute much in the other categories (4.5 boards and 2.1 assists), but if you are looking for someone to help you in the points category, this could be your guy. |
|

|

|
April 5, 2008 Kevin Martin, Ron Artest and Brad Miller may all miss the Kings game with the Nuggets on Saturday, this according to the Sacramento Bee. Martin is dealing with the flu, Artest with a sprained left thumb and Miller with a lower leg strain. Throw in the fact that Beno Udrih is also expected to miss the game with a lower back strain, and there are likely a lot of unhappy fans in Dallas and Golden State who are battling the Nuggets for playoff positioning. |
|

Martin went just 9-of-20 from the field but was a perfect 16-of-16 from the free-throw line, scoring 36 points with seven rebounds and four assists. It's amazing how Martin has taken control of this offense, scoring big point in nearly every outing this month. He likes to shoot and he likes to score. |
|
March 21, 2008 Kevin Martin scored 20 points on Friday night, but in very unorthodox fashion as he was just 2-for-12 from the field but 15-for-17 from the free throw line.

|

Martin, who is averaging over 23 points per game this year, recorded his second straight poor shooting performance. The Kings shooting guard was 9-of-23 from the field. In Sunday's loss to Golden State, Martin made just 3-of-16 shots. The third-year guard has been inconsistent as of late but is a must start in traditional formats. |
|
February 10, 2008 Kevin Martin has been a scoring whiz for the Kings this season pouring in 23.3 points per game, but for the second time in three nights he was held to single digits as he made just 3-of-16 shots on his way to nine points against the Warriors.
