Third, the characteristics of playing style
Martin is 2.01 meters tall and weighs only 84 kilograms, belongs to the thin scorer, shooting posture is strange but very accurate; the ball is general, good at moving without the ball and making fouls; but because of his thin body, it leads to poor defense and serious losses in confrontation.

Martin as the rocket Yao Mai era and Harden era between the interface left a very deep impression on everyone, but it is a pity to retire prematurely!
