The Jazz waived Martin on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With the Jazz going into a full rebuild, Martin became expendable to the franchise. In 43 regular-season appearances during the 2024-25 season, Martin averaged 6.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists. He's likely to draw interest on the open market.

Martin is out for Friday's game versus the Pacers due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Martin appears to have woken up with an illness and will now miss Friday's contest. With Walker Kessler (nose/concussion) also out, Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh should soak up the majority of Utah's frontcourt minutes. Martin's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Atlanta.

Martin is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Martin started in the loss to the Hornets on Monday, tallying five points, two rebounds, two assists and a steal across 29 minutes of action, but he'll head back to the bench for this one. He's averaging only 3.6 points and 1.7 rebounds per game in nine games off the bench since the All-Star break, so he's not expected to generate a massive impact in most formats.

Martin is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Charlotte, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Jazz are sending out a smaller starting lineup Monday, with Martin usurping Oscar Tshiebwe. Through eight outings with the first unit since joining the Jazz, Martin has averaged 8.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.8 three-pointers in 27.6 minutes.

Martin (elbow) recorded six points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 19 minutes in Sunday's 120-91 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Martin made his return after missing the Jazz's last four games due to elbow bursitis, but even though Lauri Markkanen (illness) sat out a third straight contest, head coach Will Hardy elected to bring Martin off the bench. Starters Kyle Filipowski (29 minutes) and Walker Kessler (31 minutes) ended up seeing the bulk of the playing time in the frontcourt, resulting in Martin having to settle for a light role. Unless he can capture a consistent 25-plus-minute role, Martin will likely struggle to provide enough value to warrant rostering outside of deeper leagues.
